Some macro action

[flyboy 28]

I've been fiddling around this weekend with some stuff on my camera. Just to keep the boredom away on a gloomy spotting-less day. :P These were all shot at f/2.8

I like the hat shot. The fibers look well-detailed.

Liking the hat fibers too. (Iwas thinking the same exact thing!) and lighting on the can.

I don't want to hijack the thread. I was doing some macro for my school and came out with an advertisement.
(I did this as a print so when I resized for the internet, it distorted it a bit.

No worries, Stuart. I really like that pic. It's like a Corona commercial for minors. :P

What you don't know is that the corona is a bout 6 inches to the right of the arizona. Some thought process happened and then i said, "wait, this is for school!" You picked up what I was aiming for!

Actually, that is not a macro shot. In strict photographic terms, "macro" means the optical ability to produce a 1:1 or higher magnification of an object on the film or sensor.

On the other hand, I do like the shot...just nitpicking :borat:

Here are some old shots as examples
First two are macros and the third is just a close up shot
