Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro

Good shot Kostas. The light is bit too harsh tho. While shooting in daylight you should dial down the power of your flash quite a bit, just so it gives a bit of fill and be able to freeze motion. If your using some other flash than the cameras built-in one you should look up for DIY diffusers.

Read this guys tips. Was a great help for me

One I grabbed the other day. He walked right into the mid day sun though so it's rather bright. A little cropping, but nothing else. It was kind of creepy the way he slowly turned to look at me.

You are right J.Evo
I use exp. compensation at -1 instead of using FEC (my mistake) with 430EX II
Thanks for the very useful link

Awesome!

That's pretty cool. Nice effect especially when flipped. At around $400 this lens delivers quality, fun in a small package.

for those who wants to jump to 100mm, i just have mine for sale. check out my ads <click.

Tried this shot with the 17-40L but it wouldn't focus past the mesh....... the good old 60mm did the trick, awesome little lens..........
