Macro Photography

Sorry about the late post today but I've been struck down all week with kidney stones and for anyone who has ever had them you will know why I didn't get this post completed on time.


Today I'm posting some Macro shots. I've always been intrigued by the amazing Macro close ups I see in magazines and on the web. The smallest object captured to show all its detail that otherwise escapes the human eye in real life. 

I recently purchased a Canon 100mm Macro lens to use. I had already purchased a Canon 2x extender in the past and wanted to use the two together to get super close up shots. You can imagine my annoyance when I discovered that the two don't fit together! 

Having gotten online I discovered that this was a fixable problem, I added an extension tube between the two and off I went.

The photos I'm posting today are my first time at trying macro photography, these were taken in our very small front garden,










Enjoy and i'll see you next week for my last post of the year!
