I used my kit lens, 18mm-75mm, so it wasn't a special macro lens. The other factor in this photograph is the clarity achieved from such a large original ( however, reduced the quality for the web), which wouldn't have been possibly with a low pixel count, whereas 14.2 mega-pixels does help a lot when cropping down!]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.scottphotographics.com/shot-of-the-day-10/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments>
