I want to buy a Macro lens for my canon SLR 300D. iv'e already got a canon 18-55mm Lens & a 75-300 canon ultrasonic zoom lens. So I want a specilist Macro lens. I was thinking of a Sigma 50mm F/2.8 Ex Dg Macro Lens Af. Would this do the job? I would like to do close up pictures like OY, Wayne &...

:oops: Thanks guys. I do make cards for family's birthdays, my main aim for this year is to have a callendar made out of all my pics and give them as christmas presents if them want one or not! There is so much talent on here, with Macro shots etc.. I was feeling a bit Inadequate. I will put more on...

Another of my efforts.

Small tortoiseshell enjoying the vibrant yellow flowers of the ligularia dendata 'Desdemona'.

I think the yellow of the flower makes this butterfly stand out. Or perhaps that's just a girl thing!

I know I can't compete with you all, but here is my effort.

What a great picture, i just love the faces on these little guys.

Many thanks.

I always thought i had a female common blue since it was mixing it with the male commons, but on second look i now think it's a brown argus.
I know it's been said before about these two, but just want to be certain.

Any one wanting to see Chalk-Hill Blues in abundance go to Stockbridge Downs, I went today and was having to be carefull were i was treading.

Not the best of pics attached, but I thought you might like to see it!!!
