I’ve been neglecting LJ these days trying to keep up with Facebook. The fact that Facebook hasn’t caused someone to have a breakdown and go postal with its never-ending stream of messages, requests and flashy-bits has me amazed; but that’s a post for another time.

I’ve looked at macro photography for a long time, but I never tried it myself. That was until a couple of days ago. No clue what I’m doing and no idea what the techniques are, but that has never stopped me from doing stuff before. I have a tough time locking my camera down on a tripod. I’m far too impatient and impulsive to for it. Macro photography was no different.

Maybe if I get frustrated enough I’ll stop trying to handhold something that can have a depth of field of 0.025mm deep …. maybe.

Anyway, very first macro shots … learned quite a lot in a couple of hours …
