Got a macro lens, yippee! Here's the first attempt at shooting. The seasonal Poinsettia... it's flower bud and it's leaf .

It's going to take some learning and definitely gonna have to use a tripod with my unsteady hands.

    Congratulations...I'm sure this is going to be a gift well-used. Kitzi and Candice make it look easy, but I have been assured it is not. You are off to a good start.

    wowsers! You're gonna love it and you're off to a great start..hardest part is figuring out the "sweet spot". For really up close stuff, its not very big!

    Lucky you and you are already on your way. Flower bud is sharp and dof in red is sweet. Have fun and discover new worlds with each touch of focal ring.

    Lucky you! Macros are great fun, though tripod and careful attention to DOF are critical. I like your colors.
