:thumbsup: i am impressed by what the canon 100 macro can do.
oh yea, 20 pics is better than none

 

[Peiling]

oh wowo....very nice

 

[ggodetucsamoht]

wow, tats really fantastic already.......all my shots are rather blurr and dull.......dunno why also, maybe my skills not good.....
i am using sigma 70-300APO for the macro shots, effects turn out not really nice......
after viewing the full size of the dragonfly on monitor it seem to be very blurr, cant see the eyes pixals of the fly!

Don't be disheartened bro. Try again another day. The Sigma 70-300mm APO is an under-rated lens and I have seen some very nice shots taken with it. I've got 1 too. Maybe can post a few pictures to let us see.

Joywalker, I like your white lotus flower, green leaf and pink dragonfly photos. May I know if you took a monopod/tripod?
Too bad I could not join you folks. Next time.

Thanks!
Funny thing is I did bring my tripod along but I didn't use it.
Those pictures were all taken using handheld.Let me tell you,it wasn't easy.
Guess I was lucky to get those. :embrass:
