@hrethric a 70-200 is on my wish list. Think I may have to forego the IS though. Also a 100 macro. The reversing ring is a very cheap (under £10) starting point for macro but best for indoors. Am still so new to all this!
It may not BE a toadstool but it is SHAPED like the cap of a toadstool! ;) This is a lovely capture. Love the DOF and the magnifying effect of the drops.
@_catherine_ i used a reversing ring for this as cannot afford macro yet. Basically it is a thin ring which allows you to take off your lens and reverse it! Under a £10 and lets you experiment.
