they are. thanks to some sunflowers I have seen more of them this year than just bees.

I had used the 100 maco.

and I don't take photos of spiders. I hate the things, I would rather kill them than photograph them

wELL DONT KILL THEM, EVERY CREATURE HAS A RIGHT TO LIVE.. CEPT FLIES

I hate spiders too, but they are pretty amazing to watch through a macro lens! Plus without them we would have WAY too many flies and insects. They do a good job, plus its fun to throw them at girls LOL

May have been for other reasons though

In my house, it's the males the run and hide from cockroaches and I have to clear them out
(PS - that doesn't mean my house isn't clean, we get big a$$ bush cockroaches on the Shore)

Woman coming to see a southern man from the shore vs southern woman going to see a north shore man

Evening all (morning, sorry).

Just had a look at some of mine & some by the wife
I think my daughter is a bit of a poser!

Very difficult to spend some time attempting that new foot bridge, if any come out, I'll post tomorrow.

for now - that coating peels like a banana skin after a while... make the most of it while it lasts

Matt, don't let the canon only lens snobs ruin your new toy joy. I had the Sigma 10-20 for a couple of years. It is a great lens, and the coating looked as good the day I sold as the day I bought it. Enjoy it!

But no, it's no good on a 5D, which is why I don't have it anymore.

Speaking of third party lenses anyone had any experience with Tamron ones?
