I think i should have gone with the Tamron. It seems (in tests) a better lens. Well i've the Sigma 105 Macro and have fun sometimes with it.

A rose and a green flower

We have two huge baskets of flowers in the house right now so I've been practicing my macros. Here are a couple of my favorites.

A couple of flower/plant images taken last month.

Hi all,

Here are two images I took last month with the A300 and Minolta 70-210mm 'Beercan' lens. These were taken with the camera low down to the ground on a tripod, as such I made good use of the live view on the A300.

I have processed them lightly in Aperture with the main alterations being the crop in the first image with a slight reduction in vibrancy and a small vignette added. The last image is pretty much a straight conversion.

Beercan Rose

Green is my lawn. Cut long stem rose in small vase. Shutter 500, F 6.3, ISO 200. Photoshop, crop and some sharpening.
