Re: Photos of the Day

Antz!!

I have a young apple tree in the garden and I noticed these ants on the terminal stem, so I grabbed the camera and attached the monopod (the tripod would have been useless in this instance)

The shots were taken with the macro lens on the 10D in Av mode with manual focussing and with baited breath as the stem was moving in the breeze! It was fun to do and I got 4 OK shots out of the exercise!

Thanks Karin! I could use some kind of tether to stop the branch blowing back and forth in the breeze.

Re: Photos of the Day

Been a while since I've posted any photos in here, but I recently picked up a new lens (Tamron 90mm macro) and I've been stalking around the house looking for suitable subjects...
