Hi all,

I've started to get back into macrophotography over the last few days, after not doing any for about 9 months. It took a while to remember how to get a decent image, but I captured a few worth posting this weekend. All taken using the Tamron 90mm macro and 430 EX II speedlight (1/250th sec at f/11 and 400 iso).

#1 is a male jumping spider protecting its nest,
#2 is a butterfly which sat nicely on a frangipani leaf for me,
#3 and #4 are a female jumper which had just caught a fly for lunch,
#5 is a lynx spider protecting its nest.

Thanks for looking!

Cheers,
Stephen
