My first post here. I've been in awe of the amazing macro shots I've seen here! My experience with photography has been about two weeks but I've been going macro. I shot these today with my D80 and 60mm f/2.8 using a SB600 flash and tri-pod.

    Wonderful shots - deep, rich color and fantastic detail with very shallow DOF. I like these - nicely done.

    Happy New Year to you as well.....................

    Welcome to the Macro Forum Liftoff clap.gif
    For just 2 weeks doing Macro you are ploughing along aren't you eek7.gif
    Love the brilliant colours, and they sure are sharp nod.gif

    Using a tripod can make a huge difference with Macro shots,
    but it isn't always practical to do so depending what and where you subject is.

    Excellent First Post thumb.gif looking forward to seeing more.
    Happy New Year to you and your family too.
