Fun With Super Macro Mode!

[lljdma06]

Got a new camera a few days ago, I thought I'd have some fun with it at your expense. Still trying to figure things out.

It's a canon Power shot A430 with 4.00 megapixel and 4x optical zoom. It also has a macro-mode and I thought I'd have some fun with this today.

This snail was like a quarter of an inch long.

This is one of my anubia petite nanas.

This is Hunding, one of my bettas. He's like "Whachou lookin' at!" So much attitude.

This is Gunther, another betta, he's too sexy for his bowl.

Hope you enjoyed. Those were the four best out of about a gazillion I took. Still need work with the new camera.

I think some of the quality was lost when I had to resize the photo using paint. I'll do better next time.

Great pics...and I totally understand the zillion pics for a couple of great shots! Try getting the zipping zooming fish shots, I am still learning camera settings and spend lotsa time practising to only end up with 2-3 I keep!

Glad to see you're having fun, LLJ! It's nice to finally see your other bettas! What type are those?

The days of borrowing camera and using the camera phone are long gone!

I have 10 bettas, FKNM. These were just the two who didn't swim away when I pointed the camera at them. Hunding is a plakat, and Gunther is an orange VT.

I know, I'm truely very happy that I don't have to borrow anymore. The camera, I think, has an excellent macro mode. I'm still trying to figure it out. It'll be great when I finally add to the journals, especially for the nano.

I took some nice pictures of my sweetpea, Cici, that I'll probably post in Household pets.

Thanks for your complements, I appreciate it. I can run around singing on stage wearing 40lb costume for three hours, but I can't take a good photo to save my butt.
