Macro Dahlia

Well I have a lot to learn but I was so excited to know that I now have a Macro Lens.  I was waiting for the adapter for my Sony ILCE6000 to arrive and today was the day.

As we were driving home from Katoomba I saw a glorious pink Dahlia in one of the gardens.  They're friends of mine so I'll have to send them a link to my blip today.

I have to confess I have been inspired by  blippers like Paladian who have posted some of the most extraordinary macro images.  

I had to purchase the Sony Mount Adaptor and now I can from time to time add to my interchangeable lenses for my Sony.  The macro lens is a Tamron SP 90mm F/2.8 Di Macro 1:1 USD (that's what it says on the box!!)
Another confession - that doesn't mean a lot to me at the moment, but I thought I better document it for the experts!!

PS - Really thrilled to learn that Chanie from the Camera House in Katoomba who helped me with my Adaptor and Macro Lens is now a blipper.
