Macro Picnic Ants, sweat bee, and Noah's eye

Noah and I stopped by the park today and I took a few macro shots of some ants scurrying around picking up crumbs off our picnic blanket. I also got a shot of a fast sweat bee and then Noah's eye.

They are all nice shots but the eye picture is flawless. I really liked it.

I have not posted it yet but I took and have left about 500 hummingbird photos. And all were taken with my one Canon camera. One of them is outstanding and I will probably publiish it tomorrow.; September 1, 2007 at 5:53 AM

WHY the name PHOTOGRAPHY FOR DUMMIES?

Because I don't know much about the digital cameras I have used over the years....and yet I am able to take photographs. I have never made it through my entire instruction manual for any of my cameras. I started out with a little cheap 1MP camera.....and progressed from there. I still only have a 5MP Lumix.

Can I explain much about the settings I use or how I captured the shots I have? No, not really. Does that negate the value of the photo? No, not really. They are what they are and can more than stand alone based on their own value.

I want this blog to inspire and encourage even those who think they are clueless or a "dummy" when it comes to taking pictures to just get out there and DO IT! After all if I can get these shots....I am pretty sure you could too!
