Hi Gerhard,
that's bright allright! Excellent post and the red-green complementary colour combi really makes him jump at you.
I like your note too. Often true and well said. It does need a degree of self-reflection and willingness for regular reality-tests. Growth is something I consider important, but never without knowing personal limits as well as knowing in which direction to grow.
Regards,
Gabi

Hi Gerhard, Cute baby monster looks very hairy into the bargin. TFS
What sort of distance away were you from it, and was it hand held? self intrest here trying to learn about what to expect from the new lens and camera when it arrives, even Nikon cannt tell me when I might get it, but it will happen.

Hi Gerhard,
First the colors here are amazing. Very beautiful. Second, you can almost feel the texture. Detail is very sharp. This is a superb photograph!

Hello Gerhard, a Happy New Year to you. I'm glad to see that you are enjoying your new lens and camera. This is a lovely compostition and great details especially for such a small one. Maybe the reds are a little oversaturated but the green on red contrast looks great.

Nice to see you around here :-)
