I'm Excited DSC_8560

Today I picked up my macro lens, now I have to learn how to use it properly. Any hints and tips will be greatly appreciated. We're heading off in our camper next week in search of wildflowers, so I think I've got a steep learning curve ahead of me.

This is really good already, so I think you're on the right track! Good luck!

Seems like you have the macro process well in hand

@hermann @laetitiapetrussa @365projectlinda Thanks so much for your kind comments. There were quite a few duds before I managed a shot that I was happy with and I expect that there will be a lot more.

@deborah63 Thanks Debbie I was thrilled with this one, I am wondering if it was a fluke because today's weren't too good.
