Better Macros..
Posted By: mtnbearhug, 04-06-2008, 09:48 PM

Ok gang.. here are a couple of the better macro's that I did the other day... I am really liking my little "bargain" Lens..

IMO these are a couple of the best pictures I have taken thus far... I hope you enjoy them!!!


These are of Lilly's of the Valley... These little things are no bigger then the end of your pinky finger..





Thanks,, Kim

Simpler and more effective.

Nicely done. #2 is my favorite. That 'bargain' lens gives some very nice shots.

Lovely shots! They have such a smooth, buttery feel while still retaining much detail.

Very nice Kim. I don't know how you got the purple color in the background of the first image but I really like it a lot. I have these flowers that come up every spring on the side of my home. They only get water that falls from the sky, which in San Diego is most times not much. But they still bloom on their own with no care every year. Beautiful shots you have here.
