God is a God of details, the more I see, the more I want to praise Him!
Psalms 34:1-10
1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. 2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. 3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. 4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. 5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. 6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. 7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. 8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. 9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. 10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
I worked on more macros and I got some success in focusing yesterday! I put the camera in closeup mode and pasm setting, then I used a 5x magnifier like jeweler's use on the end of my lens and then I put the camera on a small tabletop tripod. Then I got right on top of the subject, like 6-10 mm away. Natural sunlight. I was thrilled to make a macro w/o a macro lens or mode on my camera.
Thanks to Merlin who encouraged me to do this! He has the same kind of camera and gets great macros. Merlin, this one's for you! ;o) Here's one of his that made Explore!
