Thanks. It's a greenhouse with semi-transparent acrylic (?) sides.

You're getting some good images from the garden - which lens are you using?

Wow looks metallic.

This is gorse flowers from a walk we went on yesterday.
I'm using the kit lens 18-55mm, on av, manual focus. Works for close ups nicely. Not perfect by any means I know. I have purchased infinity software. So need to learn how to process pictures.

I bought nikon d100, so far I can’t say anything, but if it’s good, I’ll share photos.

Way too involved for my little brain, but nice. Whatever is fun . Life should be fun.

You are an entertainer. Thanks for the shot.

My 10 year old daughter and I set up a 'home macro studio' today, basically card background and sides, we used 'lighting' in the form of a head torch to explore angles of lighting.
here are a couple of pics.

Fun to be had with the kids, or grandkids with any camera.

Nice work. I find the kit 18-55 to be quite decent and versatile. My copy still gets used fairly often.

Thanks. I bought a couple of old manual lenses for longer distances. But am certainly much better with the kit lens. On manual or auto focus.
