This little fella flew next to me as I was taking a photo of the image above. I tried for f/2 but I couldn't focus freehand properly.

I found it quite difficult to get the colours right in this image, even after using a gray card, but I eventually got there in the end.

I quite like this image, the use of black empty space against the yellow really works well.

The focus points on this one are good, but the image is still lacking something... ?

My first real experiment with the macro lens close up on a flower bud; I think I lost the focus point in this picture but I do like the colours.

My old rommate Megan has been hassling me to take a photo and dedicate it to her in exchange for sending my mail to my sister... so here you go Megan, this one is for you.
