Posted here since they really aren't macro shots ;)

Taken with either a 70-200 F4 L + 500D diopter or a 100mm macro lens + 500D diopter. I spend less than two minutes in post processing on any image, and I never crop (a personal thing).

    I love your dragons! iloveyou.gif

    And even if they are true macros, they're still wildlife...
