Yes, wonderful closeup shots Pat. Do you use a special lens for
these. I mainly photograph orchids & would love to get decent macro's.
Cheers Wendy

Quite often I use my regular lens but in this case I did have my 60mm
installed and it has macro capabilities but technically this isn't really a
macro photo. I was fairly close to the orchid --- somewhere between 12" and
18" --- I didn't measure, but I was NOT using the macro focusing capability
as I recall. I like to get in as close as my lens will let me get so that I
can keep cropping down to a minimum.
