For my birthday I got a new close up lens for my Sony. I'm still getting used to it, as the slightest wobble seems to make the image blurry. I must get a tripod.

Here are some taken so far:

Cool pics, Jackie Cool

I like the ones of the flys, it's amazing how something so little can be so detailed!

with tripods, does it make too much difference which you go for? I mean you see them from cheap to very expensive just wondered how much they could possibly vary in quality.

Anyhow, lovely pics, your dog has a healthy looking nose.

Yes Ad they do vary quite a bit in quality..I was in the same mind set as you as I already had a tripod that I had paid £30 for many moons ago but wondered why I kept getting soft pics etc..I then bit the bullet and spent a few quid on a decent tripod and grip head..cost£200 but well worth it IMO.
