HI All.
I am new to the world of macro.
I've been a wildlife photographer for the last four years and, due to a recent diagnosis of arthritis, I have been unable to follow that hobby I enjoy as often.
I picked up a dedicated macro lens last weekend and now don't have far to walk to find something to point the camera at.
It's like learning all over again... Such a shallow DOF is something I am not used to, but I'm getting the hang of it.
Always open to helpful advice and CC.
