Sorry Greg, I think you got the "wrong end of the stick"! I was refering to Counter's confusion about the word "keester", it's not a word we use over here. I've only heard it on American TV shows. I wasn't making a comment about the language used by the OP, I am actually with you on that. If we want to keep this a family friendly place then we do have to have rules for things like this. Not that I was really offended myself, but as you say some people might be.
Keister or Keester comes from the German Kiste which means satchel or suitcase/box. ( I suppose you can sit on a suitcase). The earliest known citation is from an American article on convict’s slang from 1931. (Sorry, it's Friday afternoon and I don't want to do any more work this week so I had to look it up)
Good to know, I am glad that you're taking it easy on this rainy Friday afternoon. Despite it's German orgins I don't think I've ever seen it in English print or heard it spoken over here and therefore consider it a very American word.
:biggrin::biggrin: You folks and your words..... Actually, the number of asterisks we use are quite random, you never know how many we use to replace a word. Back to the image now! :biggrin: Matt, I really like the shot and the neutral colors all around the subject. Great subject focus. What is that bug on? Almost looks like some type of apple or maybe a cactus? Curious. Cheers, Wade
I'm curious as to the lens set up! This is beautifully close up, and incredibly sharp! Were tubes used in addition to a lens?
Wow, so this is just a straight shot, no extension tubes? I'm impressed!! Significant crop, yes? The quality and detail are just amazing!!
