Nature is an amazing thing and with summer well and truly here (in England at least) I've been overwhelmed with the fantastic nature shots that have been coming in to 365 Project on a daily basis.
In fact I've been so impressed that I went out and purchased an extension tube and have been attempting to take some Macro nature shots of my own.
Today I'd like to highlight for you some of my favourite nature shots on 365 Project. Some of the shots are old, some are new, all are excellent. Thanks to everyone who uploads these photos and continue to inspire us all!
For anyone looking for tips on how to take Macro nature shots I'll be doing a post on it in the next few weeks so stay tuned!

I love all nature macros I see from others, its great to get a different perspective on things you would just normally walk by or swat at :)
I'm at work right now but I'll come back later and share some that I think are awesome.
ahh you guys are killing me :)
these are SO amazing.
I love nature and macro shots! I too am wanting a macro lens big time but for now the macro setting and a macro filter will have to do.
Here is my favorite macro shot that I have posted on 365:

Thank you again, I am so freaking excited right now its ridiculous.
This lens to be specific -> http://www.amazon.com/Canon-55-250mm-4-0-5-6-Telephoto-Digital/dp/B0011NVMO8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1277817281&sr=8-1
I just got really really close to the subject to make it look like a macro!
You can pick up a cheap set on eBay and they work great!

Here are some examples of photos I took with my filters. I only paid $7.99 for my filters and used them for about a year before I got my lens.

Although, I don't have a DSLR, only a digi camera, so I wonder whether this contributes to some of the difficulties I have in getting the right focus etc?

I think those people no longer have active accounts. Once your account is deleted, all the pics disappear.
