Yup, my first one.

C&C welcome.

Btw, I could really get hooked on this type of shooting!

Thanks

Welcome to the forum. I not certain that this qualifies as being a macro. Macro photography begins with a 1:1 ratio. The size of the object represents the size on the sensor (image). This is more like copy work, taking something flat without depth and reproducing it. Look a copy machine. Try something three dimensional.

Ooops, that's what you get when you don't read the directions.

Sorry!

is it the rule ? Then most of us should stop saying that we shoot macro .. :evil: .

Murphy, try to get closer and at shallower angle, giving focus to one line or text only ..
