I posted this over in GD first, but pictures of flowers and pretty things don't seem to get much interest there.
My fellow photo forum enthusiasts should get more of a kick out of this.
Here's the original posting, copied from GD.
I am gearing up to go on another overseas trip and I remembered that I haven't played around much with the close up / macro mode of my Nikon AW120 camera. It mainly serves as my dive camera, and I use it at work. But, it also has a nifty little macro feature.
Today we see what it can do. These pictures were taken in and around my mom's greenhouse.
Disclaimer: I don't know what most of this stuff is. I just wanted to see it up close and see what the camera can do.

All in all, I say it did pretty well!
End original post.
And now for the photo forum question. What do ya'll say about it's abilities? Any thoughts on what else to try to see how well it performs? Worth dragging out the D7100 and kit and doing a side by side?
I know that pixel peepers will find artifacting and distortion upon close examination. It's a point and shoot.
Overall though, I say they came out damn good.
