The thing in the leftdown corner distracts just a little though. Mainly because it is sharp. At least I think so [A]
Have fun with your new lens, you're gonna love it! [:D]

Thanks for the tips Jan. Maybe I could blur that part out with PS.

You got that in flight with your 300mm!? Looks like it with the panning action going on. Good shot.
Denise,
Can you list your settings on those? I think they're great!
Paul
Thanks, Paul! EXIF has been added below each photo.

Nice Shot Paul, Love the waterdrops
Thank you Bob!
Paul - For just getting your macro lens, you clearly show you have a knack for using it very creatively!! Love your last shot of the ladybug!
Denise
Thanks Denise! I've had some good examples set for me here.
This is another one from this morning. Thought it was worthy of posting here too.

This Bug Stinks...or so I have heard.
This was hand held with my 180mm on one of my macro trips. This guy decided to pose for me in the truck as I was driving. (I did stop to take the picture)

Nice Shots!!
My daughter told me she saw a HUGE bug in the basement last night and killed it! I said, what the heck did you kill it for ...you should have called me and I could have taken a macro shot of it first!!
Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever thought I would say something like that!!

Found a Gum Emperor Moth perched in the open during the day. I think it's a female given the antennae are not overly feathered but I'm no entemologist.
It's wings are quite tatty so perhaps it flew across the Tasman from Steve U's back yard to get some sunshine! Couldn't get a shot when it had the lower wings unfurled to show their spots unfortunately.

Both are on Flickr, click on the picture for full EXIF.
1D2N with original 100mm macro (non USM), 550EX flash on hotshoe at -7deg tilt, allon a monopod with ball head.
Manually focussed but not down to 1:1 for these two given it's a large moth. Manual exposure of 1/125sec, f/11.0, ISO 100, +/- 0 FEC.
Paul.
Took these today for a challenge I was posting on my blog. Thought I would share.

Resurrecting an old thread...
All with 7D, 100mm macro, Kenko 1.4tc, and Kenko tube set. Snowflakes with 2 kenko 1.4tc.

Next one was focus stacked. I think I might have sharpened the image a little much, but still like it.

Denise that would have been a great entry for the last assignment!
Story of my life ...a day late & a dollar short!

Here's a blog post I made for this: Macro By Reverse.
Cheers!
Where do you find this reverse ring adapter?
Yesterday I got my 100L, and today I went for a long hike to try it out.
So here are two of my first, and therefore by definition: best macro shots ;-)
Both hand-held (my new tripod hasn't arrived yet), 5D2, ISO 800, f/11, and the feather just happened to be attached to the twig, I wonder who lost it...

Btw, looking at some of the other pictures: I'll be trying out focus-stacking soon...
And one question: Today I only saw one beetle, and he scampered off before I could try out whether a polariser would make the specular reflections less harsh, any experience with that?
Nice shots Colin, I especially like the bee shot. How are you liking the 100L

Btw, I find the focus-limit switch unintuitive, would have expected a different order of the switch positions with "everything" in the middle.
If it performs well enough for portraits I can sit out however long it takes for a 135L f/2 IS to arrive ;-) But I can already say that there won't be any buyers remorse regarding the 100L... Even though it's a bit too short to act as my outdoor-hiking-do-everything, but I knew that already because even my 70-200 is often too short for how I'm currently shooting landscapes. 100L + 300L would be perfect for me (or 100L + 100-400), but that'll have to wait a bit.
