Been trying to get some macro shots lately with mixed success (lots of bad focus)

75/365......

73/365......... 74/365....... I somehow got out of sync and forget to post a pic for 12th Mar which should be 71/365. It's been a busy week :D

72/365....... This is one of a small collection of echidna ornaments I have displayed in a small glass cabinet.

70/365.....I say again...excuse me?? I do seem to get this look alot :D

I want to photograph my own personal jewellery. I am going to buy a black plastic hand off eBay for photographing my rings, or maybe some ring cones. One of my local jewellers has her necklaces displayed on ceramic bottles and I have to say it displays them well, so would also be a nice idea for...

69/365....... excuse me?

68/365....... rings on her fingers I did an "introduction to silversmithing" course on Saturday and during the course of the day made 2 stacking rings. I have booked in for part 2 next month. If I like it I may even take it up as a hobby. I've made jewellery on and off since I was 18yrs old...

67/365.......8th March Not 100% focus. Little fella was moving fast and with flash necessary 1/320 is the fastest shutter speed I can go :( but I liked the light

65/365.....Tibouchina A quiet day at home after a couple of busy ones. The only thing still flowering in my garden at the end of our summer. 66/365......Silversmithing hammers

64/365....... Thanks for your concerns re my belly. I feel fine now but am now feeling slightly the after effects of my highwire attempt and have a large bruise on one leg and a few muscles letting me know I still have them :D Not anything that will stop me doing anything. Spent the day...

63/365......It's all mine!! What a day. Started OK but about 10mins into our drive up the coast to collect the boat I got some serious stomach pains. We were in 2 cars so as to leave a car at the collection point and a car at the marina we were moving the boat to, so I couldn't let my man know...

62/365........vertigo. This is really an "ÄLMOST" shot. The focal point is way out of focus because I did it handheld, but I DO like the overall effect and would like to explore this a little more I think. Anyway...busy day, and the other shots I took were uninspiring.

61/365.....hanging out with my mate....crested pigeons

60/365......a fruitless day today, hence a long shot of a pigeon. Big birds that I would love to get a closer shot of but this is as close as I can ever get

59/365.....bum's eye view

Just a tad excited @Lawrence :D We had a 20fter until last week. Sold that. No standing headroom in the cabin so a bit uncomfortable for my fella who has a bad back. This one looks like a proper little cruising yacht even tho it's a trailerable 28fter. Can't wait for the first sail :D

58/365.....blast away We lifted this small yacht today to inspect the hull, as we wish to buy it. Will be ours mid next week :D

So this is in Öff Topic so"................... This is MY latest purchase (well, don't have it yet. Haven't handed over the cash but it's a handshake deal :D ) We lifted it out of the water today so we could make sure the hull is in OK condition

Some other random shots taken at a boatyard yesterday. Boatyard is in a BIG marina with some BIG boats. Had a nice lunch in the restaurant there
