Default Macro's, Close ups, little bugs looking big.

Good Morning DPS Family! It's still dark outside here in South Korea; I wanted to share a few more Macros from the Temple grounds from Monday before I leave for work..

Hi Michael. I have just got my first macro lens and I didn't realise how difficult it is. One day I will be able to get shots as perfect as these. Thank you and God bless. PAUL

Fantastic shots, Chewy! I love the dragonfly. There's something about being able to pick out the microns-wide veins in the wings. Well done, sir!

Superb Chewy, the detail is fantastic. Bugs are so interesting when you get to view them close up and see in to their world. Macro lens is next on my dream shopping list...
