Hope Ledebur
Beautiful work. I love super macro but don’t have good macro capabilities with my current camera….Hope
Tara Lemana replied
I SO know where you’re coming from, Hope!!! I’ve only just got this camera, until two weeks ago I had a little ten year old 3.2 mp Kodak Easyshare with a minimal focal distance of 1.2m and no optical zoom at all….let’s just say Macro was NOT an option. Hence why I’ve spent the first few weeks of having my new camera feverishly indulging my deprived Macro passion!!! :))
Glad you like it, thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!! :)

Wonderful! I always thought I could not shoot such extreme macros with my compact digital camera, although it has the macro function. Now that I have seen this photo I’ll try again!
This one is my best close-up until now: look here please and comment!
Tara Lemana replied
Thanks MarieJo! Definitely have another go, your pic is lovely, with the little bug legs sticking out!! Do give it another shot, it’s so much fun!!! :)
