Peter and I headed out this morning for a doctors appt. and decided to go down to Point Defiance Park and the Rose Garden. We ended up walking around the Pagoda, the Japanese garden, and down to the waterfront. These were all with my Canon 100mm Macro.
Of course, I did some test shots before leaving home.

Peter taking his photos.
This is straight out of camera. Nothing altered, not even lighting.
Hi Mr. Spider!
Peter loved the inside of this flower.
Silly boy!
These ants were just racing past us.
Now here is the lesson that I learned today. I have been playing with aperture and have been struggling with it with this lens. I always question what aperture (f stop) to use when things are close up or far away. Here is a slightly further away group of shots. The lens has a smaller whole to take the photo from when the f-stop is a higher number. Thus, f/10 the lens is closed down compared to f/4 where the lens is really open and lets in a ton of light.
f/10 1/125sec
f/6.3 1/100sec
f/4.0 1/320sec
