Default Just a couple of Dandelion seed heads

I took these in the last week and have just finished going through them all. Took these in the back yard with the Tamron 70-300 LD Di Macro, still testing it out, its only new.





And this was one of the flowers in the bunch I got for my birthday

The 2nd pic is really nice.

The colors the pic shows in the back and the dandelion being white just adds to the glory of the snap.

Great!

Kristy, these shots are very nice...the last one is stunning. The DOF on the second one is really amazing.

Thanks Leona! That 2nd one is my favourite, along with the last one. Am thinking of getting three or more of my macro shots on some canvas for the kitchen wall the hard part will be choosing which ones!

Kirsty, these are very nice. I love the spectral highlights on the second one, they are what make it so special. The third one is outstanding also, the lighting is splendid.
