Practicing My Macro

[digiflower]

I have been playing and having fun with my camera. ;)
These where taken on super macro. The camera was about 1/2 inch away from subject.....maybe closer. <_< :lol:

well anyway just some pictures. :D
This guy was hanging around the peonies and I was trimming them so he hopped on the shed wall.

I have been working on getting better Macro's of Bees----without getting stung. <_< They sure are fast little buggers.

I like the Macro But the only thing about getting bugs is you can't use a tripod well not very easly anyway. Sure glad my camera has anti shake. ;) :lol:
The bees are out in force in the garden, They love the cosmos & marigolds as you can see the Zebrina isn't big enough for a bee. :lol: :lol:

Great looking bloomers you have there Digi. I have that same Zebrina and just love it. I also have it in the pink/purple.I don't think my camera has Macro on it,but I like the pix you guys get with it. Buster

thanks
My Zebrinas are so small last year they where around 3' or so high. :unsure:
ginny I have a Minolta Z5 :D
12x optical zoom.....I don't use digital zoom I have that off I find it makes things to blurry, also has macro and super macro plus all kinds of fun buttons. ;) :lol:

[boo]

Very cool digi :D Love the bee & the itty bitty frog :wub:

What's up with your Zebrina?! <_< You think the weather is to blame? That's pretty strange that it didn't grow.

[grindle]

Love the pictures Digi, the frog and bee are sweet :rolleyes:

I think your "macro" has got mine beat by a long shot digi. and congrats on the excellent work. Did you get a more powerful camera recently?? I think the macro on my new one is better than the old , but still isn't nearly as powerful as some available for really tiny subjects??

[decompost]

:) nice work with your (new??) equipment,
those are wonderful pix, digi!!!
that froggie has a precious "smile" :) :) :)

[terese]

12x optical zoom :mellow: :mellow:

[HarleyGal]

Great pics! :D I really like the froggie!! :wub:

[digiflower]

thanks guys I think that frog is kinda cute.
I was holding tha camera really close to the subjects with the super macro on.

Yep Boo I think it has been to hot or something not one of my zebrinas got more then 4 inches big. :unsure: :rolleyes:

My cosmos are only about 2 feet,,,,last year the bright lights where at least 3 feet and the white and purple cosmos where 5 to 6 feet. <_<

This is the camera I got back in feb I think it was. I like it but my next one is gonna be a SLR!!!!!!! that will be a few years from know though.. :D

I am practicing and learning photography better so I can sell them on stock Photography sites. I still have lots to learn. ;) But I did have 2 downloads and made me a whole Dollar..... :lol: It's a begining. ;) :lol:
