I know I shouldn’t make excuses for my lack of ability but honestly, my camera just doesn’t do macro shots very well.
I’ve only been out three times since Christmas – to a family reunion, for a beach walk and to take my car to the panelbeaters (mishap in the beach carpark).
And in the garden, the only thing of interest was cobwebs:
But, thank heavens there is a but, to see some wonderful macro shots, just pop over here to see what the rest of the team has come up with.
Now interestingly there was great post over at Wandering Weeta's blog about macro cameras - great blog it is too

The one with the cobwebs is excellent, to me. I am no expert. Just learning how to do macros on my new camera.

All cameras are able to take good macro shots, just need so practice. These are well taken, love the web shot.
ReplyDeleteWell, I think you did a wonderful job. I had trouble with this assignment for sure, but I think you did great. I like the sandals!
ReplyDeleteI love the one with the flip-flops, it tells a story all by it self of what kind of day and mood and climate...
ReplyDeleteI think you did a wonderful job of the photos. I particularly like the cobwebs. (Not that I like cobwebs..... they make me shiver) but your photo made me glad that I wasn't putting my hand in one!

Nuts in May
It's sickening to see you on the beach! Even I am beginning to find our snowy winter tiresome. A white Christmas is one thing but a white November, Decemeber, January (and forecast for Fenbruary!!) - Ugh.
ReplyDeleteme too, i love the cobweb...i think these are great photos - nice to see the beach from my snowy home!
ReplyDeletePauline... I loved the comment about the "panel beaters", it really tickled me. =D I have only ever heard them called an auto body shop (and they do charge you money)!!! I love the fishing rod and the toes in the sand because you have been visiting our Canadian sites and you have seen Steven's ice, Elaine's snowscapes and my woollies. Brrrrrrr... warm sand looks awesome!!! Thank you for sharing a laugh and a piece of summer. =D
ReplyDeleteActually the rod and reel shot is your best 'macro' shot in my humble opinion. Very well done!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad i am not the only one with macro issues this week! Like your flip flop photo. Today we need boots!
ReplyDeleteI like the flip flop shot and the feet in the water. Looks so relaxing!
ReplyDeleteOh Pauline..what wonderful shots...I adore the first one..but they are all wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteHave been so busy creating for the holidays..am back to having my head above water and will be visiting a bit more!! Hugs to you hon, Sarah
Wow it still must be pretty warm where you are. I like the web!
ReplyDeleteI like the spider webby plant. nice shot!
ReplyDeleteDid you secretly shoot my feet? I was at Pt Chevalier beach yesterday, and walked on the sand.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are great.
Are you enjoying your holidays?
We didn't go away because husband been traveling overseas a lot. But we went almost daily hiking and to the beach.
