I had a marvelous response from all of you on last week theme of Shadows. Thanks everyone you always amaze and delight me. I’m proud to announce our featured bloggers this week. Their posts really grabbed my attention. Please check out their posts and congratulate them. Maybe you will be chosen next week.
Featured Bloggers
Elizabatz Gallery – Very dramatic and striking shadows.
Cathedral of Desolation – Two strong shadow photos and oh so different.
Eyes Like Glass – Awesome variety of shadows. Love the photo of Dad fixing the car.

Cee I have really enjoyed looking at all the different styles of flower photos in this challenge. Everyone is celebrating spring!! May I ask you what lens you use for your Macro? I know you can buy special macro lenses but I don’t have one and I know they are expensive lol. But the effect of macro photography is so beautiful!! I’ve done a very few that have turned out( and nicely) with my canon 18-55 mm. that’s it.
LikeLike
I use all my lenses for macros. The focal point makes the biggest differences. If you zoom all the way to 55mm and get as close as you can…that can give you some good macros. Feel free to contact me with more questions or if you want more advice.
