….I’m loving my macro lens
I’m still learning how to use my macro lens and right now I feel like I’m not really in control. It’s very hit or miss when I’m trying to capture the perfect shot. I’m not sure what I’ve done right when I get the shot or what I’m doing wrong when I don’t. Here are a few attempts at trying to capture bees at work.
The bottom photo is obviously not a bee but when my lens got close enough to get a clear shot these orange and black milkweed bugs would quickly move to the back of the milkweed pod that they were sitting on.
Can anyone give me suggestions for getting better close-up shots. When I adjust the lens it doesn’t appear to change what I’m seeing through the lens.

Do you have little boxes in the viewfinder? If so, make sure you have them on the parts you want in focus.

Thanks Derrick. I do have those little boxes in the viewfinder. Sometimes they show up and other times they don’t. I’ll keep trying.

Same as Derrick.The little boxes. And also take a lot and you’ll soon get the idea.

I think you’re right about taking lots of shots. Eventually I find one I like.
