Day 71/365
My 50" "pro" tripods came today. Lol! I knew they were going to be cheap. But, boy, are they ever CHEAP!!! It is a shame that people will buy these and put their DSLRs on this. I'm almost concerned if it'll hold the weight of my flashes!
I'm not sure whats going on with your pictures. Other then I think they are grainy/blurry because you are using the digital zoom feature on your camera. Here's a sample picture with my S3500.

Day 70/365
My larger soft boxes came. I must say. The stuff I've bought so far from Neewer is made pretty darn well. Tomorrow my tripods should arrive. So, this weekend I play!

Day 69/365
Whoops! Saw these deer along side a stream. Beautiful setting. But. I didn't check my settings. Or the pictures until this morning. So, this is my picture of the day, and a very, very good almost shot!
Trying out the soft boxes that came yesterday. Taking close in and macro pictures can be troublesome due to the crystal's on them. Here are a few I took, unedited. Flash was bounced slightly.
Happy Sunday all.
So, it appears that I've really gotten interested in macro photography. I've been gradually collecting things to help improve my technique. I have so far:
Nikon 40mm micro 1:2.8G
Sigma 70-300 super macro 1:4-5.6 DL Macro super
Sunpac flash
Yongnuo YN560 IV speedlite
Neewer 750...
