Picked up a Tamron AF 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di LD Macro Lens a few weeks back. So this is my first attempt at macro shooting.
Just some images from out in the backyard.

Very nice Paula. Not so easy as it looks.

Careful ... Macro should come with a warning: Can be addictive and harmful to your wallet :)

I really like the first pic - how the depth of field makes the centre transparent.

Thanks Laurie :)


Thanks Rowland :) on moving objects it's not, the fly wouldn't stay still lol


Thanks Geoff :) Yes the lens is only a cheapish lens so I can imagine how much more can be accomplished with the more expensive lenses.
