I shot all the close-up photos here using the macro and supermacro function of the camera. If I need to get real close to the subject, I'll combine the supermacro function with a macro lens attached to the camera. I'm not an experienced DSLR user but I guess the basic is same... macro lens is the solution and with a DSLR, you can shoot fast moving objects like a passing fly because of the camera's sheer speed and ability to shoot in high ISO. There's no way I can do that with my existing camera. Cheers... Hi TR, am a point-and-shoot camera user. I shot all the close-up photos here using the macro and supermacro function of the camera.

I love your work. I recently bought a 60mm lens and it allows beautiful, whimsical flower shots -- but I am unable to capture the dragonfly, butterfly and other insect shots like you have here. What lens do you recommend for those type shots. Thank you. Fantastic blog. I love your work.

I share your sentiment on the graffiti near the pasar seni. The authorities should have allowed the arts to flourish on the walls of the monsoon drain. Angie, glad you like the photos. I lack equipment too. My camera is just a point-and-shoot digital, plus a macro lens. One day, I shall buy myself a DSLR and a good macro lens. Malati, thanks.
