John:
I must second Gianfranco's praise. I only hope mine turn out that good! (Though I
suspect from looking at the gallery that Bob S.'s will wow me.)
I'm kinda nervous since that was my first experience with the Vivitar 100mm Macro. I
didn't attach the optional lens to make it 1:1 so I was shooting at 1:2. The lens is
plastic-y as others have reviewed but it sure focuses quickly! I get my picture back
this evening so more later.

p.s. I just noticed that I mis-spelled "Illinois" in the subject line. Unbelieveable!
