That is amazing, even indoors/poor light that you would use F8 and that long of an exposure. Ill have to see if I can duplicate this at home tonight.
I'm going to be honest with you, I know nothing about camera stuff. I just put it on manual mode and started playing around. That seemed to give the best picture quality.

how do you take macro shots?

put camera in macro mode
get real close
press shutter release button
....
profit?

i can't get that close.

im not getting what ur saying? what are you taking a picture of? how close can u get?

take for instance the strwberry shot. i can get maybe 10 inches from it before my camera (nikon d50) can't focus on it. it will not look anything like the picture that was posted.

i dunno if DLSRs have a macro mode or not. You might need to use a macro lens? /shrug

other SLR users will have to chime in. Ive never used one

i have a macro mode, but even using that, it does that same thing. i can only get so close

It all depends on the lens you are using.
