Photography is a good way to learn patience, especially if you are taking nature photos. My passion is photographing insects, shooting them extremely challenging and thrilling.
I love seeing small little things that the world just walks by without even noticing! That is one of the biggest reasons I love macro!
I love using strong and rich colours in my photos.
None of my photos were taken at a Zoo or Butterfly Garden or Botanical Garden, they are all from my backyard, neighbours' yards and the park, except the farm animals and my pets.
I shoot in natural light and never use a flash.
My first digital camera my husband bought me in 1999 was Sony Mavica FD7. And I still have it. The camera is large and blocky. For analog SLR, I used to shoot with Zenit and Canon. I don't use them anymore.
My cameras:
Pentax *ist DS
Pentax K20D
Pentax K-5
My lenses:
Pentax DA 18-55mm
Pentax DA 50-200mm
Pentax DA 55-300mm
Pentax-D FA Macro 100mm F2.8 WR
Raynox DCR-250 Super Macro
and...
UV Filter: B+W 49mm UV MRC

Beautiful page with beautiful macros. Congratulations on excellent photographic work.
It is always a pleasure for me to admire Vie's works. An attentive, scrupulous artist and photographer. In my opinion she is very good in the macro field where she captures images of great beauty not only for the execution but also for the grace of the composition. My compliments, Vie.

Vie's images are always an absolute delight to view, mainly focusing on our 'little' friends, we enter their macro world and experience their adventures, and a little bit of their private lives :-) Not only are the images technically brilliant the colours are stunning, Vie has a great talent for colour & composition co-ordination. A wonderful photographer, that never fails to add 'a little stardust' into the eyes of the viewer. On a personal note, Vie is a fabulous contact, always encouraging and writing positive comments.
