Must b nice in Florida, every pic that Durr takes has a perfect background/scenery. I have to drive around for like an hour before i find a nice place to have a decent background.

yeah if i really want to take a good pic i'll head down to the beach but other than that my driveway does fine.

nice pics, macro can be fun. On the potography site i am a member of we play a game called the super macro guessing game. basically you post a super macro pic and people try to guess what the object is, the person that guesses corectly is the next to post a pic. here are a couple examples of what i have posted. see if you guys can figure out what they are.

what camera took these pictures? I love my olympus, but the macro mode just sucks.

Canon dslr. 300D to be exact with a custom made lens reversal mounting ring and a cheapo 18-55mm kit lens reversed. Can't afford a macro lens, lol. The problem with this setup, or any supermacro setup for that matter is that the dof is almost nonexistent, lol.
