Wow!... Maria @tiptop97 friend π, you take all those lovely photos with your little Nikon D3000 and the kit lens, the 18-55mm! ππ·π... Now that's what I call knowing and making the most of the camera at hand!... I still still have a little Nikon 3100 (although my work camera is usually my D7000) and I also have that βlittle beloved thingβ which is the 18-55mm lens, I do use it frequently for landscape and street shots... It's a nice and efficient lens whose capabilities are often unknown, but those of us who use it know it's a very good optical piece to use.... You know something?: If you attach a 4X screw-in lens to that 18-55mm, you can make very interesting macros and achieve much more diffused focus. Screw-in lenses are very cheap and for that lens you just have to make sure that the thread is 52mm diameter. These lenses come in 2X, 4X and up to 10X, but for me in particular the number of magnifications that gave me the best magnification/quality ratio is 4X, it allows you to make very good macros with the 18-55mm at F/11 aperture up to F/5.6 (at the maximum 55mm zoom) and at very close distances (I have never measured exactly how many centimeters, but it is much closer than the native 28 cm of the lens at 18mm zoom)... I apologize for going on so long, but I love seeing photographers do great work using relatively basic equipment (like you), and so I like to add a bit of my experience since I frequently use equipment like that too...
Thank you for sharing your nature photography work with us... We send a big round of applause to you!
