Frogspawn Macro Photo - Updated with ANOTHER New Shot
Had a little time today so I thought I'd try to practice a little with my camera.
 Hopefully get it figured out with a little more practice but I kinda liked this one. Last edited by superduperwesman; 02-25-2010 at 03:45 AM.

Nikon d90 ( http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/d90.htm ) w/ Nikkor AF-S 105mm f/2.8 VR Micro ( http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/105vr.htm)
It's a fairly decent camera as far as I understand. Too bad I still suck at using it. All in good time.. all in good time. I'll be winning POTM in no time ahah JK

A good start, what you need to do is turn the flow off and get that thing to sit perfectly still. Take a nice slow exposure, keep your aperture up in the high mid range and most importantly get that iso down, way too high. You can aim a little lower on the exposure to give a better feel for the light and create some light shadows and avoid over exposed areas. Also make sure you're aligned perfectly with the glass.
Try ISO 200 Aperture priority set to F/16 exposure: -0.7 (partial or center weighted average, which ever works best) Then go from there. Last edited by sphelps; 02-23-2010 at 03:27 AM.
