CoolCameragirl, Great looking pictures even on your flickr page. I'm a real amateur at this macro. Maybe you can give me tip or two. What lens are you using and in some of your close-ups the background is black. Do you work with the flowers or insects with a setup with a black background or Am I guessing. I would love to hear your feedback.
Thanks. I am using a 100mm Canon macro lens. All my photos (so far) have been taken in the field. The black background is a result of the flash. There are many different flash set-ups here on the forum, but I personally use the Canon ring flash.
