The pictures of the pink and green dragonfly are pretty amazing. Very crisp. What lens did you shoot with?

Thanks.

I was using the EF100 f/2.8 Macro USM. I was also using manual focus today with these shots.

Only been using this lens a couple months now. I like it. Still getting used to it.

This macro stuff is addicting. :)

I've got the same lens and love it for macro! It takes a little more finesse to shoot macro but the results are amazing.

Yes, finesse I need for sure. Have plenty of things to work on with this lens yet. Should be fun.
