| An air frost presented some interesting macro opportunities yesterday. First time I’ve used Sony’s 90mm macro and it took some fathoming. It’s a basic 90mm lens that only works in true Macro when you go into manual focus mode. I really should have spent more time perfecting it but it was at least -100C, and in my slippers, I wasn’t hanging about.  Click here to comment on this image.

 Click here to comment on this image. And our now ‘whiskery’ old lawn dragon….  Click here to comment on this image. Footnote…. A beautiful adult male great spotted woodpecker came to the feeders today and sat in bright sunlight on a branch. A perfect image…..but not with a bl*dy 90mm macro lens on the camera

| Super pixs Eric! They took a long time to load down, perhaps just my internet at school homework time?

As previously mentioned, it’s a normal functioning 90mm lens in auto focus mode that has a close focusing distance of around 18”. Not exactly macro! But switching it into manual focus mode (which is preferable for macro anyway) and it suddenly allows focusing down to a couple of inches! It just won’t let you use auto focus at the close distance. That said it has a lovely zoom function which kicks in as soon as you turn the manual focus ring. The significantly enlarged view makes it really easy to get accurate focus. The limitations of these shots were due to the old favourites…..too large an aperture used reducing dof and not using a tripod to keep the camera at the focussed distance. The steady shot does operate but in my experience not as well in macro as with more distant subjects. (I think Nikon said that with their 105mm micro lens the lens stabilisation doesn’t work at distances closer than 1 metre.) I was considering selling this 90mm macro but have decided it will stay for a little longer. It depends on how much appetite I have for perfecting macro.

| What size are those JPG images Eric. The JPGs load really slowly even over fibre broadband.

Didn't get a chance to take any winter photos this year but uncovered some older scenes while thinning the archives and "retraining" Photoshop with Mac.... Click here to comment on this image.

It must be Spring. Artic winds and near zero nights don’t deter the Walnut tree. Click here to comment on this image.

| We have a black mulberry in the garden - I grew it from seed many years ago - it is so robust and grows well, the birds love the mulberrys. I pollard it and the May tree every 4 or 5 years to keep them in check and stimulate bushy growth.

| Is the Mulberry tree the same as a Mulberry bush only bigger? My father had a bush and it cropped heavily every year with large lush sweet berries….that the bugs and wasps surprisingly left alone! Or maybe it was my Dad standing guard over them as they ripened. lol It was at least 90years old and we were sad to lose it when Dad died and the house was sold. We left an inventory of all the garden shrubs for the incoming people. Sadly they were property developers and put a huge decking with bifold doors across the back so we don’t know if the aged Mulberry Bush still survives.

| There are lots of different varieties of mulberries but their form depends on how you grow them. You could create a bush by pruning - they grow fast, mine puts on at least 4 or 5 feet each year. If the birds would leave me any fruit I would make wine from them - it is delicious!
