Wow, Dave, you got the bonus shot, one bee and one butterfly. Pretty cool and pretty lucky and pretty picture.
Yes, I would have to slow down the shutter speed. Since it is in manual mode, I will finally be using the METER in my camera. I will probably have to turn up the ISO so in darker situations, but if I am doing macro shots, I probably will try to be in well lit places anyway.
Don, sorry that your friend didn't want to reconnect with you. It was nice for you to send him a copy of your Zine. It sure feels good to share things like that with others.
Here is another shot using the new lens. Yesterday when I visited the garden center and foolishly tried finding flowers that would hold in spite of the windy conditions, I walked over to the nature center to see if they had anything there that I could photograph. Turtles, lizards, snakes, bunnies and other such wildlife don't move too fast, right?
I could not find anything in the several aquariums they had except for this fella. This was the best I could get shooting through thick glass.
