Hi.

This is my first post to Holy Macro. Would appreciate your comments - including if they are close enough to be macros. Thanks for your comments in advance.

    Look macroish to me :)- lovely series- like the light and colours.
    Think #1 has a little motion blur

    They look like macro's to me too lol.

    Agree with Brian's comment on #1 but I kind of like the softness of this one
    #2 is very nice indeed
    #3 is ok but I think either a much closer shot or a different composition would have enhanced this shot a lot

    It does indeed. Nothing made it to sharp. But it fits the all fuzzy composition. When I first looked at the shot, I said a couple of #%#&@ and then decided to crop to all fuzzy - soft colors soft surfaces.

    This is one of the other crops for #3. It does make a better composition I think.

    Love the color palette on #3. #1 is definitely quite blurry regardless of shallow DOF. I'm a heavy pixel peeper so I recognize this stuff pretty easily, lol.
