Hey guys after visiting a local photo gallery at a downtown art event I have taken an interest in macro photography, especially the abstract aspect of it. There was an older gentleman who used stained glass and jewelry and ordinary household things like cds to make some of the most captivating and beautiful macro images i have ever seen. The colors were just amazing. He also said, that he was 100% self taught and he never took a class. I didnt want to ask him what equipment he used because i dont feel like thats what made the photos.
However, do any of you guys use the 105mm macro? I have heard mixed things about it. I was thinking about picking up one from BH in 2 weeks when i get paid again. I dont really want to get the 3rd party alternative since those dont seem to hold their value as much.
Does anyone have any advice on this lens? Is it good for abstract macro?
