Kay, Beatriz and Sandi, thank you all very much for the great comments and compliments. As always they are very much appreciated. My settings were ISO 400, AP f5.6 and the SP was 1/500 sec. I have a great trick I was taught for taking Macron shots that I will post soon on our clubs site. #10165807

Thank you Lou and I hope it works for you Beatriz. #10169156

What really amaze me is that the hole photo is in focus. I usually end up with a line or spot in focus and the rest extremely blur. 10% focus and the rest is blur. But with the technique using the AF Magnify button things are going to be different.
Thank you again.
