    Stunning shots – I’ve been thinking of getting extension tubes for my 90mm macro lens – I think seeing your post has convinced me to buy them…..and a bit extra light aswell.

    I have never tried macro photography, but this looks like so much fun! Very tempting!
    Did you go to SCAD? I live in Savannah. :)
    Thank you for being so open about your equipment and process! For a newbie, it is so wonderful. And the photographs are absolutely gorgeous. But you knew that…

    Hi Sharon,
    I just saw your dandelions on Pinterest and visited this site as a result. Your photos really are some of the most beautiful macros I’ve ever seen. The oil and water abstracts are amazing. I’m completely smitten and look forward to following your work in future. Moi x

      Thank you for your visit Sveinung. I haven’t used the 100mm but have heard wonderful things about it and seen many stunning images taken with this lens. I’m sure you will have loads of fun with it!!

    I have just recently started playing with dandelions. I have just purchased a Canon 100mmMacro lens but not having much success with it. I also have a 60mm as well.
    Absolutely love your images

      Hi Pauline, thank you so much for your visit. I love the 60mm, I haven’t tried the 100mm yet but have heard wonderful things about the lens.

    Hi Sharon,
    Is there any particular lensbaby “macro kit” that you use.
    I have only just started playing with macro and loving it.
    Your work is stunning and very beautiful, thank you for sharing.

      Hi Pauline,

      Lovely to hear from you. You were asking about my Lensbaby macro kit. This is the one I use:

      http://www.wexphotographic.com/buy-lensbaby-macro-kit/p1032672

      http://lensbaby.co.uk/ this is the Lensbaby website. I use the Lensbaby Composer. Lensbaby is all about blur and is great fun to play with.

      I haven’t used the 100mm macro lens although I hear great things about the lens. I use the Canon EFS 60mm macro lens and the Canon MP-E65mm (which has up to 5 x magnification) I also use extension tubes for magnification. I am a little obsessed with macro photography

      I hope this helps,
      Best wishes

      Sharon
