11/10/2009 Photo Shooting in Botanical Garden with 90mm

I went to Botanical Garden last Sunday as I wanted to capture some Macro photos. As I reached my destination, I changed my lens to Tamron SP90mm Macro, even though I brought the Sigma 17-70mm along with me, I tried to limit myself with just the Macro lens.

After spending 2 hours plus in the Botanical Garden, I manged to capture some photos shown below, though the result is not so satisfying as some macro shot like the spider won't stand still and I can't get too close to it, as it keeps moving away from me. Well, I guess I still have much to learn in Macro Photography.






An unsatisfying shot of the spider














This shiny bug was so shy that I can't approach it too close, as it keeps fly away whenever I get too close

Well, I guess I still have to learn to be a better stalker in approaching insects so that I will not scare them away.

Other than some macro shots, I also used the Tamron SP90 to capture some scenery.
