Yep! I'll be adding many more pics to the site when i get better. There are so many more opportunities for different photos with a macro lens!

Very nice! What camera/lens are you using? I have a Canon Rebel T1i with the 100mm f/2.8 macro on it, and I almost never remove it. It's a great lens for pretty much everything.

Shweet. I don't have an SLR yet, but I'm saving for one.

I have a Panasonic DMW-LC55 lens and the DMW-LA5 extender so I can actually attach it to my camera. My camera is a Panasonic DMC-FZ150.

Cool! A lot of those bridge cameras nowadays produce superb images. I didn't know they made macro lenses for them, though I can't say I'm surprised. The results are very crisp and clear.

Oh, I forgot to mention this in my first post, but the succulent in your last photo is Haworthia attenuata from South Africa.

Yes I'm very pleased with the quality for a point and shoot.

Thanks for the ID! I shall label it!

Most impressive Devon, I look forward to the dazzling photos you will take. If only my photography skills held a candle to yours!

BTW, I believe your little cactus there is a Zebra cactus?
