Macro - My progress so far

[SamFisher]

Still trying hard to get to grips with this Macro malarky
It really makes me appreciate the skill of the macro experts here.
All shots taken in my garden with the Canon 100 2.8L on a 600D and lit with a 550EX + softbox.

Mike - You are using the same kit as me and on this evidence I think you are doing better although I have yet to use flash.
Keep up the good work.

I think you are doing really well, I suspect hand held? Very good, keep going!

Re: Macro - My progress so far

Cheers folks
Aye, all hand held

Its good fun but so frustrating - the slightest breeze appears to be a hurricane!!

I have a 100mm L macro, and good grief it is difficult to get a well focussed image! As you say, with a slight breeze..

Great images, especially like no.3, you appear to be a dab hand if these are your early efforts. A different class to mine.
