Wow, those are awesome! So much more vibrance than in some silly coin pics! I'll have to try something other than coins!

Is it weird that I see sexual organs in the first couple?

they are sexual organs, marq! or at least reproductive organs. ok, enough with the bio crap, yes they are flowers, orchids to be specific. i just wish i could find out how to not have it a circle

i was appreciating the details of nature and then along came your personal favorite, which just scared me...

Not at all, man. Just look up paintings by Georgia O'Keefe. She was famous for paintings depicting flowers; but, if you squinted your eyes just enough, you'd swear you were looking at porn.

Very cool shots...

The circle is a result of the focal length of the lense that you used... The wider angle the lense the more magnification in the resulting image. For the Coin and bill shots that I took, I was using the 18mm - 55mm zoom that came with my Canon D-Rebel camera. (18mm for the REAL close ups, about 30mm for the $10 bill)
