i managed to grab a pic of a Cicada on one of our tent ropes whilst away camping over the Xmas / New Year period.........

I took a couple of flower shots in my backyard after a rainstorm, that was [not] coincidentally right after RobGrey challenged me to pick up my camera again.

these are just with a kit lense on a rebel t3, learning how to use it

right after RobGrey challenged me to pick up my camera again.

Did I do that?

I can't talk, I've hardly taken a shot in over a year. To interested in electronics these days.

Yes, it was in the electronics thread about Adobe cloud stuff and Lightroom verses Windows 7

It's not the same but one thing I love about macro photography is that you don't have to go very far, even the back yard or local park has plenty of subjects. And it gives you a good excuse to lurk in the bushes

Thanks, I needed the push.

EnigmaDSM, you nailed that dragonfly shot. Seems you were a bit to close on the flower shot. Pull back, focus, and then crop in post!

Good shots everyone. We are having something of a heatwave here in Oz, 42C here today so I thought you'd like to see how the locals cool off.



That's the bird bath he's sitting in, the birds had to make do elsewhere for a while

We call this guy "Notch" (check the ears), he's a bit of a character, he spends a large part of the day just hanging around the truck or under one of the containers. Maybe I should buy him a Jacuzzi.

Having a bad feather day? Looks PO'd! Took this yesterday on Kolob Terrace Rd, Virgin, UT.

All taken yesterday. Been a good start to 2014 for me so far as far as photography goes.

Not up to par with any of you fine folks, but this one is pretty special to me. First Brookie I caught with my Grandfather's ol' Wright and McGill Bamboo rod after he passed last year. The trout swam away just fine, btw.

I like your fine photo. It is special. A beautiful brookie, white wild geranium, and a nice fly rod. Thanks for posting.

Here are some shots from my recent trip to the Galapagos Islands.

 

[graynomad]

One place I would love to go, but I believe it's too restrictive these days, IE you have to have a guide and be on a tour.

One must also stay on the path. And not be on land before sunrise or after sunset. Yada yada

Nonetheless, the Galapagos Islands are a great experience. A magical place.

If you are a SCUBA diver, the underwater scenery and wildlife is just superb, truly a bucket list destination for diving photographers.
