The seeds on the fishbone fern. First post from the 105, pretty rough and ready, but I wanted to post something.

Great shot Greg - macro is such a new world and it looks as if you will become a guru

Well done Greg,

What camera settings did you use ?

It takes a bit of getting used to this Lens. BTW : Do you know what the Limit switch is for, I haven't got around to ask before.

Thanks,

Mic.

No apologies needed, Greg. I think that's a sweet little shot and a neat little plant. I've always liked ferns.

Mic, the limit switch keeps the auto focus from searching its full range, limiting it either to .45m to infinity or .45m to min focusing distance.

Thanks guys.

mic, i just used aperture priority, f5.6, 1/320 sec, and let the camera do the exposure work. The uncropped frame was fairly meter friendly. Morning sun.

Not trying to be a smartarse mic, but it is worth looking at the lens' manual

Greg, that would be the logical thing to do now wouldn't it

But with 2 screaming kids, Colour posting problems, work hassles, a mortgage, a new Wacom Tablet to figure out, etc, etc.

Oh and a Wife & the fact that Marcus still thinks I'm a Girl

I just thought I would ask.

Mic.

Thanks Steve, Thats all I wanted to know.

Lovely... Just showed the wife to try to increase her enthusism with this nikon gem

Amazing how everything just looks so much more exotic when you close in

These macro shots seems to bring so much detail to things I probably would never have previously noticed... Great detail...

The macro world is an entirely new world.
It is amazing to me.
It really is like an entirely new universe.

Enjoy the macro world !
Happy Easter to you !

Very nice shot, Greg. Good color and symmetry.
