It's all Macro
I took these today at the Butterfly house at Rutland Water. They were all taken with the Nikon 200mm micro lens that I got hold of last year. What do you think?

Nice toy !!
I would say the two images of butterflies sucking nectar are the best, especially the 3th one. Pity the eye on the last one is out of the focus plane. However, it looks like your sensor is in need of a cleanup.... Gerard |

I've been waiting to see the results of this new lense........how absolutley fabulous! I agree the third one down is probably the best, but the last two are super as well. Its picking up stuff that you would find hard to see with the naked eye (well I would). Cant wait to see the underwater stuff.

I have to say that it is a difficult lens to use because of the short depth of field. Before I can use this UW, I'll have to have the tripod collar removed and then buy more bits and pieces for the port. Before then I really do need to get in more practice with it.
And I do need to get clean the sensor - it's a real mess at the mo.
