Hi Emanuel

Congratulations on your new lens; hope you'll make a whole bunch of great shots with it :)
This is a very good one, by the way! I like the DOF acheived. Also great are the POV, colors and light.
The subject itself is also very cool, but quite difficult to picture - it's sometimes too big :))
Great shot, anyway!

Bravo and TFS

Emmanuel,
Good eye contact and colors here. I think it's a geat test shot for your new macro lens! Real shallow DOF, looks great!
