First shots with Sigma 105mm DG

First shots with the Sigma.

The fly was hand held in my back garden on top of a box which has some old apples on it for the birds. 1/60 @ f5.6 ISO 200

The flower was taken with light supplied by a 580EX off camera and some light bounced back in with some white card. 1/250 @ f4.5 ISO 100

Like the 2nd shot, almost makes me think of "into the jaws of death".

Great looking shots, congrats on the lens

Cheers guys,just got to get used to the DOF.Have been used to using the 300 and taking pics of cars and bikes LOL but well impressed with the quality from the Sigma but i fear that macro might become a bit of an addiction.

wow nice shots! im thinking of getting this lens too.
