The biggest factor that holds many photographers back from achieving greatness is time. In order to climb to the next level, time is the most important thing that you can spend that can bear significant results. You can't just expect to spend an hour or two doing photography in your spare time in the weekend and expect your skills to improve dramatically. To get to the standards of National Geographic photographers, someone once said (I forgot who) you need to eat, breathe and sleep thinking about photography. Your passion must burn so bright that you will want to shoot more and more to get that next best shot. Without spending enough time, you can only get so far. This is the case with my own macro photography, I admit it isn't my priority, and I did not spend enough time out there, looking for interesting bugs and dramatic shots to be captured. It is very simple really, the more time I spend out there shooting and looking for bugs, the more chances I am giving myself to discover greater shots. With the limited time that I have with the Tamron 90mm F2.8 DI III Macro lens (special thanks to Futuromic Malaysia), and even less time that I allocated to actually do macro photography in local parks, these are the few decent that's I managed to capture. Nothing award-winning worthy, but hey, it is work in progress. And I must remind myself to spend more time if I want to get better.
