I'm sure it's not I just thought I'd run a comb through my hair. What a waste of a thought that was

Took this hand held with a 55-300mm @190mm 1/1250s f/4.5 iso 100. Have only resized to 72ppi for forum. Can't see anything as bad as you have.

Not so much a competition entry, just seeing what the WG-10 can do in 1cm macro mode. The built in LED's give insufficient light so had to tilt the camera slightly to allow some light to get onto the subject. I think it's ok for a "free" camera. Image has been resized only.

Haven't tried the WG-10 underwater yet

They look quite nice to me too. To get them to 'pop' I think the following are important:

- Get the focus 100% correct - on the eyes
- Choose the right aperture - nice and wide, but not at the expense of the performance of the lens
- Don't over-expose it!
- Choose the right lens, some examples that make images 'pop' are DA*50-135, SMC K55 F1.8, Sigma 105 DG EX Macro, Pentax DFA 100mm Macro, of course there are lots of others too
- Most importantly, get the background right

All of the above, and try to get her to smile

I think it may help your quest if you gave a clue as to your budget.

Lovely images, and with my favourite lens

I like the Pentax 17-70mm but it doesn't get the use it deserves as it seems like the bog standard 18-135mm is "glued" to my camera Will probably pop it into the bag for a day at the Lake District next weekend

I use the £8.78 subscription of CC, already had Lightroom which I got at a good price although I use it very very rarely. If/when the subscription price doubles I'll probably revert to PS5 and perhaps start getting my head round Lightroom, also have PSE12 to fall back on. There are free trials of most software available so you could see what you find best for you before commitment
