    Love Picasa and thanks for the other recommendations. I'm not good at them, but I love macros. Will have to see if I have any on my computer to share.

    Hehe, you're welcome.
    Just go out and shoot some new ones when you need a break from packing ;)

    Nice shot! I have iPhoto for cropping. It works well enough. I have Photoshop but never yet learned to use it. We got a relative's extra license for free. Now if only I had around 100 hours free to master the basics...

    Wow! I've been tagged with a photo assignment. I'll do my best to try and snag some. I have been playing a bit with my macro setting and tweaking in iPhoto.

    Wonderful. Where are these pic taken?

    P.S: PICASA is one hell of a good program I say :)

    Thanks, Mrs SR :)
    I have PS CS3 since Kuwait and I only do the basics. I also got Paintshop Pro 9 in Korea - again, only know the Basics. Sigh.
    I hate manuals ;)

    Actually, Sandy, I did it, because you said you wanna get better ;)

    Thanks, Lisa :)

    Thanks, Bashar, this was taken here in Hungary.
    And yes, Picasa is a hell of a program :)

    Depending on WHAT your shooting you dont always need a tripod. In fact most professionals will tell you that only "beginner" types will use a tripod lol. I dont believe in that line at all but if your shooting stuff that will stay still for long periods, you dont need a tripod.

    If your photographing things like bugs and stuff its nice TO use a tripod but not really necassary.

    I use my tripod when i know my arms are going to get REALLY tired. Like when im doing 200 shots of a sunset/sun rise or when Im taking pics of the moon.

    I would like to get a really nice macro lens for my cam for when I do stuff like goto the Botanical garends, or flower exhibits around here.

    Good job on the pics!

    :>> @ Pandi - just keep shooting :yes: I've not heard a Pro say that yet, Kristi, but most I virtually "talked" to did mostly Studio shots anyway. Not my kind of cake. An yepp, except for when shooting La Luna I HATE using that damn tripod. You are so inflexible with that darn thing :) And I sign the petition for the Macro lens, grin :)

    I've NEVER used a tripod on any of my macros. I'm glad you reminded me about this... I keep forgetting that I said I'd do this. Are we just supposed to be putting up macros all month? In July?

    I will do better. Sorry about that.
  12. § NicoleB® Email said on :
    You just put up what you want us to look at.
    Like something you are not clear about, something you want a tip on or something you are proud of :)
    You can do your own "How to" as well and I'll link to it - or let us know about certain programs, etc.

    And using tripod or not, whatever works best for you :)

    A very nice photo! I don't know if I can make such photo with my Canon Ixus 430, but I'm going to try it soon! :p
