A happy Hover fly on a dandelion. And a nice flower that needed shooting. My dog walking Camera Nikon A1000, P mode Macro setting. And Canon 100mm F2.8 from memory.

A beaut set of pics, but may I say, some could do with a bit more DoF ... ?

"P" mode is very useful on many occasions ~ I use it for the majority of general everyday shooting too
Many times I tweak the final setting via the rolly-wheel as needed for that pic. "S" mode and "A" modes come next, depending on what I am shooting

I can't see any exif data on your pics so it's a bit hard to discern where to offer precise suggestions re: better-next-time pics

Thanks to the vBulletin software all EXIF data is stripped when uploaded to the forum. We have been nagging the guru's at VB to change this but the will not come to the party, they cite privacy issues as the reason.
