    I love taking pictures of most anything with a macro-lens. Especially flowers. Also, I can’t see your hover fly because I’m behind a firewall and I can’t seem to find a proxy site that my company isn’t blocking. Can you email me the hoverfly pic or give me the flickr link: justin@openyard.com

    hehe - I’m a closet flower photographer too - we should start a club.

    I’m also into bees :-)

    Nice.

    And by the way, it takes a real man to dig flowers.

    I have a soft spot for these interesting bugs: http://i1.treknature.com/photos/2639/praying_mantis_iv.jpg

    Also looking into breeding dragon flies to launch as natural mosquito control.

    And that bee looks like it is screaming in @ lightspeed, hehe funny stuff. ;-0

    Just purchased an EOS 350D, for work, small office set up, we have a website and I wanted to take some nice close up pictures of our products sometimes so you can read the lable nearly, but at this stage I am baffled, cannot get clear close up images they are blury & best tips for screen viewing, Oh I am an absolute novice.

    Advice welcome, good, bad, indiferrent!!

    the shot above was with the Canon 10-22mm which imo the the Best lens I have ever owned !! it a super wide angle so the shot above is a crop shot ! i will dig out the orginal ..
