These two pics were taken last friday using my new Tamron Macro 90mm Di... I know that they were not that good... but still I wanna share them with you, my fellow friends.

These are good, I like the way the white centre of the flower stands out from the purple. I like the shot of the green bug best though.

Good enough for me. This is 2 outstanding captures using your new macro lens.

Good work with the new lens. That's a ferocious looking monster there, no, wait it's a grasshopper. I like the white 'bit' (technical botanical term there) in the haze of purple flower.

(Here's a trick I picked up on this site, sorry I can't remember who brought it up. Carry a spray bottle of water for those flower macro shots and give the leaves/petals etc a light misting just before you capture your shot. The water droplets look great in macro, or you could use shallow DoF and get some bokeh)

Thanks JustJim for sharing the tips with me.. I will for sure, try that one and post the photo in my other coming post here.

I also bought the Tamron 90mm Macro lens a few months back, now it hardly leaves my camera.
Nice shots, and I know there are many many more to come, have fun!
