Hey Guys,

Finally received my 100mm Macro, been itching to buy one for years, took 3 weeks to ship and came last week. Took some photos on the weekend, lots to learn, but very happy with first results. Also been getting into stereo-photography. Have built my own mirror box but as I only have one camera, and also bought macro sliders to go with my new lens, been shooting some stereo-pics by taking two pics with the one rig, sliding it across.

Keen to hear feedback, and if I'm forming any bad habits.

Non-stereo images:

Tiny weed growing in my bonsai pot,

Bonsai trunk, could have bumped the DOF a bit more, realised in post.

Oregano died off ... so I thought, I trimmed it all back and few days later these guys appeared.


Stereo images (red-blue anaglyph versions, red eye left):
