  I finally decided to venture into macro photography, and my new lens arrived yesterday morning. The photos were all taken around my garden. Any and all comments welcome….

  The first one really came out nice.

  The tap i think is a bit more diffcult where to focus on. Parts of it are out, but maybe you wanted that.
  I also got a new macro lens yesterday. I found its harder then i thought it would be.

  So great for a first. Better then mine

  I quite like the grass one.
  Macr is difficult, with focussing and low depth of field.

  Nice set.

  #3 for me – even though the out of focus object in the foreground is a little distracting; the sharpness and colour of the focal point make the shot.
