Antonio,

Such vivid colors against the muted background. My favorite is the last one.

I vote for the second one Antonio. I have a 60mm EF-S macro but have never gotten this close with it but only once and that was with a couple of fruit flies. Like Roy there, I too like the muted background. Well done.

Thanks Roy and Roberto, Ken the 60 macro is very incisive at f/4 f/5.6,
The shape of flower allows diaphragms open, I hope to make other beautiful photos of fruit flies.

Very good shots there, hard to pick a favourite. I love the soft OOF background!

Stunning shallow DOF and the colours are wonderful. The clean backgrounds are just gorgeous with how that makes them stand out.

Stupendo prospettiva !!!

Yes, Juza and I go back a long time and good friends. I visit there quite often. Excellent photography and forum. We should have a link to Juza's main page because he does have a lot of information and also, a very clever macro photographer............ stupendo !.

They make me feel very welcome there.

All the best Antonio

Juza's forum is on my links page if you want that. Its hard to find from his site page, unless hes changed it. Ahh, the forum is in Italian but quite a few speak English. Excellent all round photography and like I said, Juza is superb with macro. Very clever guy with what he uses and makes up. Impressive.
