I'm not a macro shooter, but I was out at a park a few weeks ago, and I had the Macro 100 on, and a dragonfly came up and rested just a few feet away. So I decided to try and shoot 'em.

This is what I got. Is it ok? I don't think I'm going to pursue macro, but am I on the right track?

Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular.

Why do people post their equipment in their sig. Isn't it kind of like bragging? That having been said...
