The macro setting is the flower. There'll often be a mountain for landscape, a face for portraiture and a flower for close up. If you do have this option, select it, but don't zoom in (if you have that), it will make everthing blurry. I found that if you focus, by half pushing the button, then you can move in a little closer. Fingers crossed that it's possible!!helicopter6https://www.blogger.com/profile/13152237737294500185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8677116910450138774.post-30559583806795585192010-10-10T11:21:00.894+11:002010-10-10T11:21:00.894+11:00That's so awesome!

I remember going to cath tadpoles (and dealing with leeches!)... unfortunately his ended up in the lab (sorry everyone), and mine ended up in the fishtank where they weren't very welcome (probably more devastating). One did manage to mature, and I think it jumped out overnight, never to be seen again! I love that you have those kind of children!helicopter6https://www.blogger.com/profile/13152237737294500185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8677116910450138774.post-29437613989418416772010-10-07T21:29:40.886+11:002010-10-07T21:29:40.886+11:00Great you had the camera with you.
