Got a 100mm macro at the weekend and had a lot of fun chasing small things around the garden!
Thanks to Neil Burnell (TP member) for the inspiration.

Great start Jimi! This is definitely the place to look for inspiration, ask questions and learn from the very helpful TP members, I look forward to more pics throughout the year.

Nice! I particularly like shot #2.

I only recently got a 100mm macro too and have been mostly doing flowers so need to get out bug hunting!

No.3 is a good one, keep on practicing and you will not be able to get the macro thing off your mind soon

Thanks folks. Nailing the focus is so hard when they move fast or it's windy. Still, keep practicing...

Try to take a few shots when you think you get close to the focus, this works for me

Great start. Lovely detail and clarity in #1, and I really like the composition of the last one.
