Trying out a borrowed Canon 100 macro lens today in preparation for the purchase of a dedicated macro lens.
Plenty of activity in the garden after recent rains and now some nice balmy pre summer weather.

Great shot Steve! How much fun is that 100 huh?! :)
bill oneil
excellent, I can see a new lens by christmas
Steve Chapple replied
Not sure about that Bill. Thanks to AngieBel giving me a fixed 50 1.8 to try I collected that new one on Friday. The 100 will have to wait a little longer I’m afraid.
Sharon House
Excellent shot Steve. Enjoy your macro when you get it.

Great shot.

ok mate, I have the 50, it came with the second hand eos3oov I bought…if we catch up again you can try my Tamron 90mm macro if you wish.
Steve Chapple
Sounds good Bill. The chap I was with today had his new Canon 100-500 1.4 worth $11,000 (he actually got it for that price, down from $13,500). Not that I was jealous but hell it was something to dream about.

‘Nice balmy pre summer wheather’......You could have kept that bit to yourself eh?! We are covered in white stuff at the moment :( Anyway, this is a gorgeous macro. Nice detail, especially in the wings. Merry Christmas to you and your family Steve and all the best to you in the New Year :)
