Busy Summers Day.

MattyB · 24th of October 2005 (Mon)

here are some shots i just took out in my backyard, i didn't feel i was upto the Macro section standards considering these were all taken with my 300D and 18-55mm Kit Lens.
It was windy, so some were on sports mode to take advantage of the AI AF thingo

let me know what you think

2 more, my cat didn't like my sniffing around her garden.

Nidz · 24th of October 2005 (Mon)

nice pics.. I like the cat's eyes.

MattyB · 24th of October 2005 (Mon)

thanks nidz

tomorrow, my aim is to get a photo of a hover-bee (the first one) actually hovering.
:S it'll be tuff, but i'm a skilled professional photographer with a million dollars worth of lens' and stuff. hah!

Nice shots Matty, I like the first photo of the hoverfly and the garden shot with the cat. The bee capture seems overwhelmed by the purple color surrounding it.

Matt, that's a cool shot of the cat's camoflage! Even the green eyes blend in well with the grass.

MattyB · 24th of October 2005 (Mon)
