Just started to do Macro - use a Canon 60mm, looking to purchase the Canon 100mm macro or the Tamron 90mm macro. Any thoughts?

I absolutely love Macro photography, though I think I will enjoy it more when I get my extension tubes!

I know what you mean Mel, Macro photography is also about patience, skill and timing.

Azz - I wouldn't say a 150mm is completely necessary for creepy crawlies, I use a 100mm and Mel uses a 60 mm

Hi guys, new member here. Have a look at my photos that I have just uploaded, I've included some of my favourite macro shots that I have taken over the past few years

Know what you mean Mel and I think I've said things like 'Wow, which lens did you use'... it's only cos we think your shots are great and want to try and emulate them

Carole.. for the creepy crawlies you need to get a 150mm macro lens

(didn't I say this was expensive lol)

You also have to be brave enough to get up close to the creepy crawlies

something I have not been brave enough to try yet.

Must admit though, it IS disheartening when you do a nice macro shot and people say 'Ooooh that's nice, you must have a VERY good lens' .. hmm, it isn't JUST the lens ya know?

I'd love to get a proper macro lens! Sure I will at some point (damn this photography lark is expensive lol)
