Tiny lantana bud |
Anole on crape myrtle tree |
Some sort of spider - nearly missed him he was so small |

I have no idea what the last insect is; looks like some sort of moth? The metallic color of the stalk is pretty cool, too. Just wish I could remember what plant he was perched on.

Beautiful photos!
Greetings, RW & SK
Super photos! You must be very patient.
Marvelous, Gail. Send more, please.
IT is amazing hoe much more that camera can see then my own eyes. Awesome. sandie
That dragonfly was grinning for you! That is one amazying lens, how far away are you from your subjects if I am ask?
Lantana buds always reminded me of sugar coated jelled candy one would see in a candy display case.
Outstanding captures as only you can do it.
wow! these are awesome! i think the dragon might be my fave!
These are wonderful shots, Gail!
You are rocking that lens!
Superb photos! It's awesome to get so much detail out of such small subjects! I really like the anole!
That spider is crazy creepy!
Wow, wow, WOW! That's all I can say right now :) The shots are truly amazing, Gail. Hugs to you!
Oh My Land O' Goshen, these are fabulous!!!
That scarf is just one scarf. It has all those colors about every 10 inches or so. I love it! (BUT I FOUND AN EVEN MORE FAB ONE ON SATURDAY ...eeeeeeeek)
Thanks hon for all your fun comments. Yes, recall we were going to meet in Austin this year, but No Money Honey? We need to meet and wear our super hot pink pants!!!!!!!!!!!
holy moly these are fantastic!!
Oh Gail I am smitten with that lens and your talent as well. Hug B
These are all so cool! That is a great lens and you use it well.
Wow! These are superb, Gail. And this was your first week with the lens? Words fail me. The lizard and the dragonfly are deliciously wonderful!
Gail, I'm smitten, too! Amazing detail! Now I'm torn between getting a wide-angle next or a macro!
Wow - these are exquisite. As are the macros in your last post. You are a master of the macro lens.. but I hear you about the wind!
These are absolutely out of this world, Gail! They should be in a book....fabulous examples of macro nature.
Lovely images! Your new lens is wonderful along with you the lens operator. The Anole is one of my favorites. Have a happy day!
Wow Gail! You certainly bounced back with a vengeance. Your macro photography is absolutely stunning! I love every one of them!
Take good care of yourself - Richard
You certainly are taking amazing pictures with lens.
WOWOWOWOWOW. Gosh these are wow! What lens did you get Gail? I am looking for one.
WOW.. These are pretty awesome shots my friend. Looks like you are loving that macro lens..
Hugs~
These are all amazing Gail! Makes me want to get my camera out and do some "real" photography again. I'd love a macro lens too!
...those spider eyes?!!!! They're following me. I swear.
Magnificent images. The 'fuzzy' shows on the Lantana buds. Wow.
Oh my Gail!! In Florida, the lantana is a weed. Over the last couple of years I've decided to grow the weed since it soes so well in the hot, dry, drought, summers we have had here in Atl. Your shot is beautiful- the texture is amazing of the lantana!! And your Dragonfly!! THose colors!! when you take your shots -- even you have to be amazed by the beauty that you can't see with the normal human eye!!
With these kind of results, I can see why you are so smitten with this lens....They are just amazing...
These macro's are awesome, especially the dragonfly.

Oh Gail, I'm so happy to see that you're back to blogging! I've missing seeing your beautiful pictures. Speaking of pictures, wow, these are so great! I have the 100mm macro lens too. I don't have the skill with it that you have though :)
All wonderful -- you're a macro genius. That dragonfly is the most amazing to me...they never hold still...I can't imagine how you managed to zoom in that way before he moved...just incredible.
These macro shots make me want to rush out and buy that lens! Love the anole. I've gotten a closeup of one of these fellows but nothing so outstanding!
Gail these are amazing...that spider is so spooky and the anole is like a rainbow
Maybe you've said before, but...
how do you get so close without these critters leaving (or moving away)??
