Taken with my Canon Digital Ixus 75, which is a point-and-shoot. I put it in "macro" mode- through the menu, not the little button on the back. It takes practice, but you can nail excellent macro shots with a simple point-and-shoot camera.

These small Irises were on sale at the National Trust shop at Ickworth House. Always thought Irises made excellent macro subjects. Sigma 105mm Macro

My roomates step sister, Ann, came by to study algebra. He had some conflicting obligations, so I took her downtown and let her use my camera and gave her a couple of tips. She was into photographing a lot of graffitti, did some really excellent macro's (that I'm slightly jelous of!) and also photographed some frogs from a calendar so that it'd look like she took some really good photo's. You can tell that she's 15 b/c she described all of her impressive shots as "tight", lol. Anyway, I promised her I'd upload these, & give her full credit, so here you go. There are shots from Kerry Park, Seattle Central Library, and the Pike Place Market. I cropped and digitally manipulated some of the shots, but for most of these it was her who focused and released the shutter. Enjoy!

Testing my wife's new camera. It does excellent macro stuff.

I really have no idea of what these are so if anyone can tell me it will be very appreciated. In the meanwhile I'll try to find its name. Name issue aside, I love these flowers; they are excellent macro subjects and have a nice sense of delicateness.

Pretty excellent macro of a little spider that i noticed outside our door returning from taking charlie bear for a walk.

taken with my canon 100mm f2.8 macro and a bounced flash. Also had a little light from our porch light.
