Here’s one reason I LOVE my macro lens- it turns even the most ordinary sights into a thing of artwork.
Before the time changed, I found myself spending a lot of my evenings out in the yard, exploring with my 100mm 2.8L Macro lens. I suddenly wanted to capture the crispy leaves, pine cones, and little rocks in our yard. Now when I leave work at five, the sun is already rapidly fading from the sky and I barely have any time at all for photography fun. But that’s another topic all together and this is supposed to be Wordless Wednesday, so I will hush.
Just a few more words though: I love my macro lens.
Kimberly - Beautiful! I don’t have a macro lens (yet!) but I do love my macro filters! It is like seeing the world through a whole new light.
Thank you for linking up with Wild & Wonderful Wednesday!
Faith - beautiful!!
Tezzie - Awesome! (still jealous ;D)
Cedar - I love the details in this…so awesome! Glad you are enjoying your lens! Did you see Rosie’s tutorial on Ashley’s blog about making a light box so you can take pictures in the evening? Free…or cheap. Deals with that pesky night problem. http://www.ashleysisk.com/2011/11/shoot-and-edit-week-43edit-guest.html
My friend made one similar with black background…sets up the tripod and takes a long exposure…but lovely macros.
(I bought a flash to contend with the night myself…but no macro…choices, choices.)
kbreints - ….and I need one of those!! Fantastic shot!
makenzie - beautiful!!
sherene - i love the picture of pine cone,very simple subject but its so breath taking.
Sarah - Gorgeous. I want that lens. Do you love it?
Kristy Life n Reflection - I just shared this on facebook. I’ve never seen a pine-cone look more beautiful.
Gina - WOW- that is GORGEOUS!
The Lumberjack's Wife - Gorgeous! And I don’t even know what a macro lens is!
