Gone to Seed

072 - A walk beside the river a few miles north of York, and I thought I would have yet another play with the macro.

I love the structure of the dandelion when it has gone to seed, and the macro helps to make the view of it much clearer

Lovely.

I know from my point of view, macro has given me insight into a new world.

@collin

You're quite right - there's a whole new world in minature to explore!

[Ann Stenson]

What a wonderful capture Ian! : )

[Sarah Bremner]

beautiful - don't we live in a wonderful world!

[Angela Huddart]

Beautiful photo...I have problems with the macro...I must read the manual more thoroughly!

@annbo

Thank you Ann, I'm only just comming to terms with the macro on this camera

@sarah19

Thank you Sarah - It certainly is a wonderful world, and the macro (when I manage to use it correctly!) is a great way of exploring and experiencing some of the detail

@angelamhuddart

Thank you Angela, I'm only just coming to terms with the macro, and part of the problem is that I don't have a printed manual, just a pdf file on the computer. I have to read a bit, go out and try it and then come back to the computer to find out where I went wrong, which is a long slow process!

@lizzy_lu123

Thank you Lisa - I feel that at last I'm getting results that I'm reasonably happy with

[Louise]

I really like this, the close up of the seed heads make a lovely pattern across the surface of the picture.

@louisefrance

Thank you Louise, glad you like it. I think it's fascinating how much of the detail that you wouldn't normally notice is revealed when you use a macro

[Marie]

WOnderfully captured Ian.

@marieooi

Thank you Marie, after struggling for a while with macro shots, they seem to be improving with the practice
