I got the lens in the mail this week. I tried a few handhelds and today I really spent an hour or so taking some shots out back with the tripod. Sunny and windy day fortunately and unfortunately! Here you go!

Sunny is fine for macro, but windy is not. But you did well.

Still, a very good and enjoyable series!

The first photo is the most unique, and definitely my favorite. The rest are very nice, but not that out of the ordinary. Either way, great job!

ALL of these images are great! I cannot wait to see more!

That last one is really good, especially considering how inane of a subject it is.

Thx! I tried today to photograph my girlfriends snake (yuck!) but I didn't get anything I was too keen on. Moved around too much for Macro!
