This morning I work up early to catch some of that morning dew and rising sunlight. I rented this amazing 55mm Macro Nikon Lens that I absolutely love, hopefully it will be mine soon :).
Since I primarily photograph people, I tend to use this lens for little details during a wedding (hands, invitations, rings, etc) and Babies! they are tinny right... and they have lots of cute little lines on the bottoms of their feet that I love to capture.
Well this morning I used the lens to capture pollen and ants crawling on some beautiful spring flowers some soon to be fall fruit. I never realized how difficult it was to get the subject in focus (since I have a very very narrow depth of field) and the plants are constantly moving in the wind, I can't get myself stabile enough and the ants keep moving! haha all in all I had fun and it was not really that successful with the ants. Maybe next time.. they are kinda gross close up anyway.
White climbing roses
Lavender
Valencia Oranges
Macro is the funnest. I really like the oranges, the colors come out so nicely on those two shots.
