OK! Here is mine from tonight.

This was the super moon last year.

WOW!! Talk about hard to get used to. I did a few tonight after work. Too tire to do any more. Here are three . I'm getting better!

I did an experiment tonight by using my 85mm and reversing my manual 50mm lens. I need some practice with this one. But, I am proud of what I accomplished.

Last year I mentioned these guys. At first I thought they were a pest bug of sorts. If you know me I had to look them up. Come to find out they are the first stage of the Asian ladybug and I was able to see all the stages on one bush the other day. Excuse the 1st picture. He was on the move and...

Here is a June bug from yesterday. I haven't seen them in a while. 85mm, S-200, f16, ISO-100

Moon shot about 20 minutes ago.

My 3rd one.

I decided to open my own forum on macro. When I do post the shots I will post the camera and settings. Also I will try to post daily. I will post old stuff if I don't get out to shoot. God knows I have a lot of photos.

Dew drop refraction.

50/1.8D iso 1600, S-1/60 @ f1.8 It's like a daycare around here. From bottles to toys.

I posted these types of ants last year and learned that they are Aphid tending ants. They protect the Aphids and in return they get the honey dew they give off. Also the wasps and hornets eat the aphids,

I owned many point and shoots and a couple of Bridge cameras. I learned the basics over the years to shoot a decent picture. When I got my first Nikon over two years ago.( a d3100) I figured I would give this picture taking a go toward professional pictures to sell. I grabbed my 3100 and started...

One for today.
