My new macro lens arrived today. Woo hoo!

Beware...this means you may be seeing lots of macro shots up here in the next few days/weeks as I learn how to use it.

I've never had a true macro lens before so I'm really excited.

For those that speak "photo" the lens is the Sigma 50mm f2.8 Macro. A good starter macro lens that can focus down to 1:1.

Right around the corner from our house in Melbourne.

From our trip to South Africa, January 2007.

This was the one of those thrill rides where the arm swings people around in a huge circle. I caught it just as it passed in front of the sun a the Royal Melbourne Show.

It's the weekend (at least here)...time to relax:

Reaching back to the days of film with this one. Taken at the floating market near Bangkok, Thailand.

This photo of a galah was taken near a bike/walking trail not far from our house in Melbourne.
