Finally back to photography

I got bored during the Christmas Celebration at my church so I sneaked out and took some macros.

Ok fine, it's also because I haven't done any macros in ages, and I miss how my camera feels in my hands.

Also, I was hungry, and the pic of the ant feasting on the flower nectar somehow suited the situation.

I wouldn't say they were too bad, considering I haven't done any macros in a while. A tip to ametuer photographers everywhere, this is the rule of thirds. Basically, don't have your object in the dead middle of the picture. An object in a macro shot should try not to fill more than 4/9 of the screen.

For example, divide your screen into 9 parts, like Tic Tac Toe. At most, the object should only touch 4 boxes.

Also, comments are welcome =)

EDIT : All pictures have been resized to 1280 x 1024. Original pictures will be uploaded as soon as I am not too lazy to do it. And to Tsing Yie, no I'm not showing off... I've loved photography since forever.
