Visited the park this morning for some macros.

That's all. Hope you like them.

great shots, what lens are you using?

I am using the 100mm macro, with a Raynox +8 dioptre kit for the additional magnification.

May be getting some extension tubes soon. Will experiment to see what sort of magnification I can get.

Here's another shot of the last orange dragonfly, slightly closer than the previous shot but I kind of like the composition in the previous shot.

Where are you from? (if you don't mind the question)

I haven't seen Dragonflies like this around me (well at least since I've had a camera ;) )

Of course I don't mind. I'm from the other side of the globe, in Asia. A small island called Singapore. Have you been here before?

There are many different types of dragonflies here. Red, pink, blue, orange, black, green, etc. Perhaps one day I will shoot them all. :D

Great, I didn't know the magnification could increase that much with just tubes and the sharpness wasn't really affected.

I have never been to Singapore but I have read and seen much about the country. I hear the golf is wonderful if your ball doesn't get stolen by a monkey :lol: (that happened to a guy I played with here in the states)

I look forward to seeing your shots as you strive to shoot them all!
