And... you love flowers...deep down.. I just know it.  I think you are going to be safe this year... the wildflower season isn't looking good. Lack of rain and the freezes from what I'm seeing on Desert USA. Hatch Thanks Frank. You can't STILL dig #6 because you have never seen it before, you saw one that was the same concept but a different horse.  This one isn't moving, whereas the other one is a "dragging the shutter" shot. DOUG JAMES | PHOTO PRODUCTIONS

I was looking at the Sigma 150 like you recommended, but I'm pretty sure to hand hold at that lenghth, my shutter would have to be pretty high, unless I got IS.. but the IS is more than I can spend on a lens.. Still thinking about the Canon 100.... I guess something would be better than nothing.. Or maybe just get the extension tubes like you guys said. lol... Everytime the flowers bloom I get all itchy for a macro lens. Kristy, Kristy, Kristy...............

Mar 30, 2011 15:44 | #1672 Instead of getting a macro lens why not get extension tubes? Canon 7D Mk2, Sony A7iii, Canon 85mm f1.8, Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS mk1, Sigma 17-55mm f2.8, Tamron 28-75iii, a few flashes and many modifiers

This one isn't moving, whereas the other one is a "dragging the shutter" shot. That shot (#6) baffles me a bit.. How did you drag the shutter to get everything all nice an blurry.. yet keep the horse in focus...? Tracking him? macroshooter1970 wrote in post #12125997 Kristy, Kristy, Kristy............... Can't wait for you to get a macro lens The 100mm Macro L or none L are both about equal, shot and had both. To be honest if I ever got one again I would save the cash and get regular 100mm macro. Unless I actually needed the IS. See and I was going to send you a set of tubes before  hahaha.. I've been talking about getting one for years... the timing just never works out for me though. I sold my 20D a few months back, and have been hanging on to the cash, trying to decide what to buy. TauntDevil wrote in post #12126135 Instead of getting a macro lens why not get extension tubes? I do alot of freelensing to make my stuff macro. Id like to use tubes sometimes but just saying.. cheaper. haha I've never used tubes... don't even know how they work. lol.. But I understand that you loose light from them and end up having to compensate for it. If I shoot macro, I know I'll want to be shooting at least f/10 - f/16, and I'll need my shutter around 1/200 for tack sharp images.. so that doesn't leave much room for the ISO to pick up slack.. lol.. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,but by the moments that take our breath away.

-AP- Goldmember  More info | Nice Doug, I really enjoyed that series. For some reason it seems to almost tell a story. Almost an interpretation of what you saw artistically while wondering through the festival. WEBSITE
