Title: First attempt with the E-410 and macros
Post by: gjtoth on May 04, 2009, 03:47:53 PM
With the el cheapo macro filter on my 14-42mm lens, I went in search of the tiniest plants I could find in my garden.  No tripod   :o ,very overcast and a slight breeze.  You can bet I'll be using a tripod next time out!   That li'l yellow flower is no bigger around than the very tip of your pinky.  The sassafras is still very small.  What looks like green bananas is lupine.  The green "tentacle"-looking stuff is sedum.

You may want a tripod next time out, but this is a great shot.

Great shot - but I could do without that bug!   :(

You are obviously having a great deal of fun with your new cameras.  This is well done. 

Bugs don't bother me as long as it isn't a cockroach.
