For this type of shooting I think Aperture priority is just as good as manual. Just imho.

Av is fine, but you learn more when you shoot in Manual. I always suggest shooting in manual. Especially to people who don't know much about the camera yet.

Don't normally try to take pictures for photography purposes, just to show off bombs and such. But, without any photshop or anything else, here are 5 Kristoff Criollo Lanceros.

I really like the way this shot came out. Maybe it was cigars themselves which made this such a good shot.

Dan... it looks like you're trying to push your macro a bit too much, as it's kinda blurry still... I bet the same pics but a little further back would look much better

Cool! Thanks for the tip! Yes, I had the lens almost touching the foot.
