Re: New To Macro

I stood outside near a giant web near my front porch for about 25 minutes once with my macro lens, trying to get something good, but the darn light breeze and my own muscles only got me a few that were reasonably good. I have done better with webs that were spun in dense bushes, as the wind was less impactful.

It was supposed to be one of my goals this year to learn better how to do handheld macro photography, but I didn't get to it enough. I see the recommendations for a flash, and that probably would have helped me in some cases for sure.
