s2000isu - Thanks!

The camera is a digital Nikon (D-200), however the lens I used is a Tamron 90mm micro. A terrific lens.

I've always maintained that it's not the camera body but the lens and the lighting that makes your shot.

How I shot it:
Camera on tripod by open car door.
Lighting was soft (overcast sky) so I used 2 small silver reflectors which I propped on the seats to add some sparkle. They did the trick.

Actually the image was a tad dark so I used Photoshop to brighten it which was the only enhancing that I did on this photo.
