We got this beautiful yellow roses last weekend that is starting to bloom, it is really beautiful and a great subject to photograph. So I decided to test my new Panasonic LUMIX DMC-G3 16 MP Micro Four-Thirds Camera and see how it does with macro. I use the Panasonic 45-200mm f/4.0-5.6 Lumix G Vario MEGA OIS Zoom Micro Four Thirds Lens for Panasonic and Olympus Micro Four Thirds Cameras

A really busy bee. Early this morning I went for a walk around our block instead of my usual 5 mile run. While passing by my neighbors garden, I saw this bee hanging on a bud and snap a couple of shots before it flew. I'm sure they won't mind. Thankfully, I got one that I can use for this post.
When I got home, I immediately imported the photos from the PEN to my catalog, the photo is fine right of camera, but, decided to try to play with the Luminance Sliders in Lightroom.
This one belongs to my PEN collection. Lately I've been spending most of my time with the Olympus PEN E-PL1. I really like the E-PL1, for it's simplicity, it's lightweight, small, and best of all, it takes great pictures. Yes I love my Canon DSLR's and EF lenses, but, for a walk around and backup camera, E-PL1 is a great choice. Here's a photo of my old Canon AE-1 with FD 50mm F/1.8 and FD 35-70mm I shot with the PEN E-PL1 with a FD 50mm F/1.8.

Three things I didn't like about the Raynox DCR-250, first, the plastic lens cap is really hard to remove, second, it doesn't have rear lens cover, and third because it doesn't have a rear lens cover, I have to put it on the plastic container below that it came with, It's ok but [...]
Raynox DCR-250 Front and Rear Lens Caps
Three things I didn't like about the Raynox DCR-250, first, the plastic lens cap is really hard to remove, second, it doesn't have rear lens cover, and third because it doesn't have a rear lens cover, I have to put it on the plastic container below that it came with, It's ok but bulky.
