Macro

Recently sold my macro lenses because they seldom came out of the camera bag. I didn't shoot macro very often, mostly when I did it was close up anyway and not 1:1.
My 70-300 DX AF-P VR at 300mm gets me as close as I need to get. Its not a macro lens but it gets the job done for me and is far more versatile.
You may have something in your bag that will double duty so take advantage of it and resist collecting seldom used gear.
Here is an example: Don't know why it rotates CCW but its not bad that way.

Excellent shot, Joe! The zoom did the job just fine. I agree with your advice, too. I did a lot of house cleaning a few months ago and sold most of my surplus. I have a couple of stragglers that I should part with but just can't bring myself to do it.

I absolutely do not mind to collect seldom used gear, as long as it gets used every once in a while (although all my gear gets used a lot)!

That is very nice. Yellow and white flowers are always very tricky to not 'blow out', and you handled it probably better than I could.
