First attempt at Macro

[Forgey (Paula)]

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.

Great shots, Paula-very sharp

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

Nice photos Paula, I also like the depth of field on the first photo, really well done!
