Bugs 'n flowers

[Lyanna]

I took my cam with me when I was visiting the inlaws and some family and took some shots in their gardens using the macro option. They turned out pretty well, even though the shot with the bee is not completely to my liking cause at the top, the flowers are slightly out of focus.

This one, the water lily, I am quite proud of, specially because you can even see the lil'bugs on it quite sharply. The color might be a little too vivid (didn't do any alterations in photoshop...might want to desaturize a little).

Westman...which of the photo's are you talking about? The sky was overcast with the lily...which is why the water looks grey. Do you think I should have used a different lighting setting?

The second one is my favorite I like how the flower seems to pop out due to the dark background.
