I'm still getting use to this Macro stuff and slowly learning it. I see a lot of shots on here and wonder if they peeled off the camera that way or were some added some special touches. If so have you got any creative macro secrets you'd like to share or show off some photos? I set here a lot scratching my head saying, "How'd they do that."

    The only trick I often use is focus stacking to increase the DOF.

    Ahahahaha TwistJ you sound like me rolleyes1.gif
    I sit in awe of the amazing posts we see here at Dgrin.

    I guess you have to remember everyone had to start somewhere,
    before they got where they are today.

    Some people move forward in leaps and bounds,
    some move steadily along, while others still move forward, but struggle.

    I am yet to see anyone go backwards :D

    From my own personal experience, I have learnt so much from the very people that post on this forum, and still am thumb.gif ... Skippy :D

    Thank you both. It is a learning thing for sure and I'm having a ball doing so.
