I had never shot any true macro until July, 2015, when I bought a nice Canon macro lens. I still primarily shoot birds, but that lens has certainly opened up the photographic possibilities for me. What I've loved about the macro lens is that it's something you can easiliy do right in your back yard. Yes, we also have birds in our back yard, but the variety is quite typical for a suburban setting. The variety is quite limited. With macro, there's seemingly an infinite set of possibilities just in your back yard, and not just insects. This is one of my first macro photos, of a Long-horned Bee. Another thing shooting macro does...opens your eyes to the beauty of little creatures such as this.
