Macros shots using Canon EF 100mm macro usm- added pics 11/8

All kind of unknown flowers and buds that I can find at the back of my house in Sibu...

I would say it is quite a challenge to take macro shot as there isn't any lens stabilization of Canon EF 100mm MACRO USM.

So, what I do are, playing around with the shutter speed & aperture & built-in flash to get a clearer shot. I should have use tripod but unfortunately I forgot to bring it back to Sibu.

Sharp, at least at this web sizes. But rather similar and monotonous composition through out.
