    Hi Allyn,

    If you want to make close-up foto’s you’ll need a macro lens. They aren’t cheap but they can double as a great portret lens! Nikon has a 60mm 2.8 and a 105mm 2.8. I have added some pics taken with the 105.
    If you have any questions just let me know!

    best regards

    That Olympus Stylus most likely has a macro mode (it will be a flower petal).

    Thanks for those links Neal! Those articles are great… Rather than hijack Allyn’s thread I created one with my first ever attempts at the same thing…

    Maarten – those are some awesome pics and ties!

    Allyn – swing by Tailwaters in Dallas. I’m there pretty much every day and shoot a ton of fly photography here. I’ll show you the ropes in person.

    Cheers,

    Matt Jones
