Macro flower photographs

Thank you, Liz.

I used a Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM for these.

Some more experiments with the close up filters on the 45-200 Lumix. I like this look, but I still need to work on it. This was my first day shooting with this lens and the close up filters, I think I can do better, any suggestions are welcome.

I like the softness, it reminds me of David Hamilton although his subjects were better looking;)

I like these colours Samantha, very bright, almost too bright in some places, but a very nice effect overall. Did you crop at all? I would have liked a bit more on the right side and at the bottom, but perhaps that wasn't possible.

Letrow, I think the yellow flower with the background removed is stunning! Flowers are one of my favorite to shoot. I'm working on getting great pictures like yours. They are beautiful.

Trying to hone my macro shooting skills.

Thnaks for the comments. This is one from a range of pictures of the same thing and this is the closest one which i did achieve by cropping yes
