Gee, I can't tell which I like better. The natural light are very good shots, but so are the flash shots...it's a toss up!

Both being very well done!

Thanks for the comments George and Tom

Tom - no using a Tamron 90 for these. The hover on my finger is the same one as the previous shot. She had looked calm and collected whilst I photographed her on the leaf so I just stuck my finger under her nose and she stepped on.
