Testing how close I can get to an object with my Canon ELPH 300 HS point-n-shoot camera. I'm happy with the saturated reds (something my Canon Digital Rebel doesn't do well with), and the clarity of focus.

Yeah, right. I could never take a photo like this one. Great capture!

Sure you can! The trick is to take a bunch of photos - 99% will probably be crappy - but it's the one good one you're after. At least, that's how it works most of the time for me. Thanks for the kind words, my friend.

That means a lot of patience. I might try snapping a few photos when I'll feel like it again. Photography is something that I don't "love," but sometimes I'm in the mood for it. And you're welcome!

That's pretty good. My attempts at similar photos ended up with a petal partially in the way. :3

Yeah, it is. There was one point when I took photos of virtually nothing but flowers, but recently I've been photographing clouds and skies more. :D
