Hello friends,

Been a while since I’ve posted but things have been very busy on the home front so I haven’t had much time to dedicate to hive. We bought some Painted Lady butterfly caterpillars a few weeks ago and they came in recently which I will give a better post to that fun event but I wanted to share some cool macro photography attempts I did this evening!

Macro with 50mm lens

So we bought this fantastic canon 50mm lens a few months back before we went to Florida for vacation. It’s been such a great purchase for our photography hobby we love it. I took some pictures trying to do it in a macro fashion, my first attempt! Let me know what you think.

I know the 50mm lens isn’t the ideal one to take this type of picture but it’s the clearest lens we’ve got so we chose it. Someday we want to have a little side business of taking photos for people so we are trying to get better at the different styles.
