ENTRY 1:
Here's my entry for today for the 7 Days Marco-Photography Contest 3 hosted by @flamingirl.
Today's photo was taken at my Mother-in-laws property of a spent dandelion. It was through a time were I was doing a lot of experimenting with my macro lens, I've had my lens for a long time and had not really used it very much, so I was pushing myself outside of my comfort zone. I took a number of shots that day that I really like and in particular, it is the many photos of the spent dandelions that are my favourite. Here is one of them...

ENTRY 2:
Here's my entry for day 5 of the 7 Days Marco-Photography Contest 3 hosted by @flamingirl.
For today's entry I have gone with my favourite flower which is the Lotus, this one is called Cimson Velvet. This was taken in my garden, it had just opened that day and a sun shower had just passed which added to its beauty captured in this photo. What do you think?

ENTRY 1:
Hello everyone. I think, people who follows my posts, you probably know what equipment do I use for this kind of photography. Old Canon 600D is still the beast for this because it has crop sensor that will give me higher macro magnification, cheap Sigma 28-70 that costed like 10$ and macro reverse adapter for my Canon body that costed around 2$. This is the best equipment under 300$ for macro photography, you can also use even older camera body from Canon and you will get same results but smaller resolution. So for even less money you will get this result, that is amazing.
Camera Lens Shutter speed F-stop ISO
Canon 600D Sigma 28-70mm 1/80 sec. f/8 200
Thank you for stopping by! Have a nice day! :)

Today, even higher magnification. I'm really happy how this photo came perfect, composition is great, there is not any distractions, rule of third dominates. He was on his natural habitat, I didn't glued him or froze him, because I heard stories where macro photographers just freeze their subject, literally. :D
This is one of the best photos of any insect that I took, in future there will be more amazing shots but for now this is my far greatest photo. :)

Here is before and after of this photo. There was a slightly edit of colors just to make this photo pop and nothing else.

3rd PLACE for: @boddhisattva
Another photo that I took during the summer photo-hunting at the flower garden.
Bees are very fussy insects. To photograph a bee is quite difficult. When I hunt a bee pollinating flowers, I have to do a lot of shots. And sometimes they make good photos among them.
Here, quite by chance, the flower petals created a very good atmosphere around the bee.
And here the original size picture.
