I’m just thrilled. I finally have a decent macro lens. I decided to go ahead, bite the bullet, and get the new Canon 100mm 2.8L Macro with IS. It’s a beautiful lens. Had so much fun playing with it a little today just outside my house. Can’t wait to really take it out and see what it can do. And I must tell you….I have the most insane and irrational fear of bees. But I couldn’t help myself today. I somehow felt perfectly safe when looking through the lens. Silly…I know.
