My one macro is the DA 35mm F:2.8 Ltd. It has served my very well.
It's small, light, sharp, and makes a great general purpose. It
doesn't have a focus stop so AF can be slow to resolve if it misses
focus on the first try.
I love it for plants and small objects, but I'd really want a 100mm or

I know Nesbitt Drive very well. When I lived in Rosedale I did that
walk in the other direction.
Snowy nights walking over Mud Creek (that's what the Governors' Road
Bridge goes over IIRC) are beautiful. The walk along that ravine path
under the bridge is beautiful, too. Think I have a winter s

her in this photo. Never noticed it when I've seen her riding.
She's a tiny thing (maybe about 5 feet tall), one would think it would
be hard to find a "too small" bike for someone of that stature. ;-)
But yeah, small frame,
I suggest looking at Tumblr.
I've kept a blog on Blogger for a few years, and as George says it's
well integrated with G+. It's also easy to post to from Flickr, and it
displays helpful stats so you can see what gets read and where your
traffic comes from. And it's free.
But I've found Blogger's
Now that I have a few minutes on a "real" computer (as opposed to the
android) I can finally look at a few PESOs posted on photo.net!
I like this one, Dave. The light is beautifully moody, and I love the
"pose" of Lucy. Impressive lack of noise for ISO 6400.
All in all, lovely photo!
cheers,

A fun part of pinhole photography is that the infinite DOF makes some strange
illusions. The camera is on the ground by the edge of a small puddle of about
50cm long. It looks a lot larger and the stones you see on th

I have used the the Pentax A100/2.8 Macro the most shooting film.
Some time ago Mark Cassino convinced me to upgrade to the DFA100/2.8.
Both work fine on the K-5 and manual focusing is no problem w/ Macros.
Most every macro lens is very good.
The manual focus old ones for film should be cheapest.

I agree with Tom C.
I don't shoot macro a lot so I chose the 100 f2.8 for a couple of
reasons. It's a decent lens, of course, but the 100mm focal length on
the crop sensor body lets me have a decent working distance between
the camera and the subject. If you're going to do anything with

I've experience with only the FA 100/2.8 macro.
It's not a pretty beast, but I've always thought it delivered great results.
Used they seem to be going for $350 -$500.
In my mind, the advantages of a 100mm is you can be twice as far from your
subject and still get the desired framing. Also the
Dan - you already have a gmail address. If you're looking for
something free, Blogger seems like an easy choice, at least for
initial experimentation. With it's Google+ integration it would work
well.
If I were looking for a non-free site, today I'd use squarespace.
