Title: How to keep your wife sweet!
Post by: azrael71 on July 27, 2011, 10:56:52 PM

As some of you may know I have a very understanding wife, she never moans about all the time and money I spend on my hobbies.
She has even been known to paint the odd model (28mm).

Now her hobby is photography, one that I encourage as I get to use her cameras ;)
So when she mentioned wanting a new one I bought her a panasonic tz18 as a thank you for being so tolerant.
Now I liked her old compact and the pictures I post are taken with that.
So when she said the new one did better macro I didn't really pay her any notice.
Until I saw the results.
OMG!!!
The detail you can get with it is out of this world.
Here are a few samples:


WARNING - There are none wargaming pics in this post, but they do show you the quality of the shots ;)

Update!
Apparently those were taken NOT using macro!
The ones with the macro function on are to awesome to describe :)
