Macro Monday

I have a few friends who are very good photographers and they always post a Macro Monday of beautiful and awesome photos they've taken. I am by no means a photographer, but it's something that I hope one day I can do well. I've signed up for an online class that starts Nov 1st and I'm very excited for it. It's pretty basic but is going to teach me to use my standard digital camera so that I can take the best possible pictures.

In my excitement, and with the beautiful weather & the autumn leaves I decided to play around with the macro feature of my camera and so in the spirit of Macro Monday here are the results.

I wish I had a beautiful (and colorful!) tree to take pictures of! I'm sad my macro lens broke on vacation in Arizona...Victor figured since it was already broke he could be his normal self and take it apart and try and put it back together again...hoping to fix it in the process...no such luck and now it's missing 2 SUPER small screws...just great! =D

You are a great photographer. I love the leaves. I bet Seattle is soooo pretty in October.

I too share your love for photography, but haven't done anything about it so way to go for doing something with it. I love the bright colors in those pictures!
