I'm a retired social worker and a latecomer to photography. I have a pretty good eye but my technical skills are only so-so. I'm trying to make up for lost time by learning all I can from accomplished photographers. Currently I'm obsessed with macro, especially flowers, butterflies, bees, etc. I also love birds but don't yet have the skill level or equipment for that (this is a very expensive hobby if you don't have a lot of cash lying around). I'd appreciate any feedback you can give (please be gentle), and since I love nature but usually don't know what I'm looking at, feel free to identify what's in my photos.
