Went crazy with the macro lens. Here's some of the nicest ones:

Lemon drop flower

(maybe?) Caribbean Red flower

Mutant jalapeno flower - too many petals

Mutant pepper starting to form from above flower - freaky.

Ladybug larva attaching itself to underside of leaf

Ladybug larva turning into a ladybug - shedding

Freaky looking orange and black bug I've been keeping my eye on

Same bug after shedding it's skin

[Omri]

EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Huge choc hab leaves. My other habs never got this big.

Choc hab buds just starting.

Overwintered white hab - find the lizard! Or count the buds, flowers, pods.

isn't that an assassin bug Carol?

Yeah, I'm thinking it's somewhere in the assassin/mantis family.

Cool stuff Carol!

I think the macro mode is my fave part of that camera. (I have the same one) It also takes rather good movies too.

Nice job.

those are some great pictures, i'm thinking of overwintering a lot of my plants this year in huge pots so i can have some as big as that hab youve got there

[Captain Murphy]

Thanks for the pics Carol. The shedding Assassin Bug is very cool.

Great pics! I found a small centipede running around in the soil of one of my plants earlier today. Would have been nice to get a pic of it!

 

[FiveSix]

Awesome stuff. I love the flower with the extra petals.

 

[ABurningMouth]

Cool pics. I found the lizard.

My S630 like hers I got used on Craigslist for $40USD a couple years ago, and is worth around $50 now. Only real issue is rather low battery life and it tends to suck indoors in low light. A tripod really helps for sharp macro shots too.

I do understand the dollar difference is pretty high though for shopping.

1 US Dollar = 6.28100 Trinidad/Tobago Dollar
1 Trinidad/Tobago Dollar (TTD) = 0.15921 US Dollar (USD)

Would make it a bit tougher for sure.

But, there's lots of good inexpensive cams out there. I'd rather have a good used cam than a new cheap one.

Panasonic makes nice point/shoot models...just be sure it's got quality glass optics.

Is that the lizard from the Cheech and Chong movie?
What else ya growing?

Hi Carol

Love the pics, make sure you post more! What camera do you have and how much was it? My macro on my camera isn't very good and would love to get a better one one day.
