Patterns and Colors in Macro

Last saturday I wake up so early because I was too exited to shoot macro. So at around 6am I went alone to U.P. Diliman to shoot macro. And because of my stupidity I forgot that I Did not charge the batteries for my Flash. So what I did was I bought some alkaline batteries, I found out that its not good to use alkaline batteries for flash because the recycle time for the flash is slower... anyway I managed to shoot some decent images..

Macro at UP 10.10.08

I went to UP last October 10 to meet some Macro shooting guys from PiPho. I was there at around 6:30 am, I tried using my new toy, my Canon 580EX2 with a Spectra Light Diffuser.

What I found out is that external flash helps a lot in improving the sharpness and adding depth of field since I can use up to F11 without any problem.

Here are some of my my shots....

Macro at UP Diliman 060208

Last Saturday I woke up very early because I am exited to join the macro E.B. of PiPho (Http://PinoyPhotography.Org). At exactly 6am (call time) I arrived at the meeting area, there was a Pipho Member also waiting for the others, It was my first time to saw him and I did not expect he was the great Macro Shooter Arbill.... Anyway the whole E.B. was fun and I have some fairly Good Macro Shots....
