Taking advantage of the sunshine and warm weather last weekend, I took my new camera outside for a few macro (flower setting) shots. I have had the camera for a month and must admit that I’ve yet to read the instruction manual or watch the CD, but gave it a try anyway and these are straight out of the camera.

Hi Honey,
ReplyDeleteIf I didn't KNOW THE PHOTOGRAPH WAS THE EYE OF A GARGOYLE...
I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT IT WAS THE EYE OF A HORSE ON A VINTAGE MERRY GO ROUND.
I love all your photographs but I love the branch that had been sawed off.
Thank You for sharing them
Have A Sugar Sweet Day.
We are having 30-50 mph winds and 5 degrees temp with a -18 wind chill...we have only gotten 4 inches at this time...my mil and fil received 18 inches already.

Great pictures. Isn't it fun getting a new toy? I get impatient and just want to dive right in and forget the directions..ha! Great job and thanks so much for visiting with me.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. It is wonderful you get to go outside. I can't wait to go play with my macro lens outside.

Great job! I think the one of the eye is stunning! Really grabs you. I also like the tiny washer. The contrast of the metal and the sidewalk is really interesting. The green stained glass is so pretty with the light coming in. I really enjoyed your photos. Thanks for your visit to my macro photo post. hugs, Linda

I have to agree, the washer shot is great. Something about the stones in the cement and the sleekness of the washer. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteClose-up of the eye got my attention. Nice job on the photos.

I like to take macro photos. The only criticism I have of my new camera is that the macro is not so good as on the old.
ReplyDeleteGreat survey, I'm sure you're getting a great response. phone accessories
