    nice work guys! sandrodz, the subway one is great. very good exposure on it. Kerosene - awesome macros! I don't have a lot of insects myself so I often marvel at others work in this area!

    I am an enthusiast as well, just ditched my old web site in lieu of this: timsdd.

    I shoot pretty much anything but I love macro as well.

    I used a 2 lens macro setup for these. The last one, the m&m will give you an idea of the area of which the entire frame covers...not very big with that magnification!

    Love the m&m, great colours. I've been meaning to take some 'around the house' macros for months. Much more pleasant that crawling around the garden looking for bugs.

    Tks, the m is a longtime fav.
    I hear that, me no crawly! The cool thing about around the house too, unlimited supply of subjects!

    here's a stash of 90 that I've done with this setup: http://www.flickr.com/photos/timsdd/sets/72157594419362719/
    Thank you! How long have you two been shooting?

    can't beat the DSLR. I started shooting forever ago with a 35mm Minolta Maxxum, didn't really get serious about photography though until this decade :)

    I still haven't moved to DSLR. I use a Fuji S9500 (9mpx) with a Raynox macro lens.

    I borrowed a 350D for a while, thinking I might get one - but I just couldn't bring myself to spend the money when I couldn't really see the image difference against my Fuji. I guess I'll eventually make the move to DSLR, but I'd want to have some serious spare money to spend on lenses.

    that's a nice camera. I could see not wanting to make the jump BUT I couldn't live wihtout being able to change lenses.

    Having a really nice lens is something foreign to me, I just barely bought some sweet ass glass. So now I don't have any excuses if my photos suck :p

    that particular series I did PS in order to attain the colors to some extent. Most of the time I don't jack with them too much. 1) my PS skills aren't that good, 2) My attention span is like 7 minutes so if I can't PS in 7 I'm done!, 3) I'd rather shoot than edit!!!

    Nah. Me no lizard. It's nearly healed up, a couple of mm to go.
    Next time I need to remember to cauterise it.

    Samantha would eat me for breakfast I'm sure. :D
