Bought myself a Macro at 'Focus on Imaging' show. The daffodil was in my front garden, lighting is by a desk lamp and mini maglite, with a black card background. Hi tech!

    Thanks Brian, this is one of my favourite images. I'm slowly getting to grips with manual focus again.

    Very nice Matthew, the black background really sets off the golden yellow Daffodil, your improvising light method has worked well for you clap.gif
    More Macro's coming our way soon I bet :D thanks for sharing.
