A burst of hot days has seen an explosion of insect life.
Having moved to a new area I am presented with many new creatures to photograph.
Here is a small collection of some of my most recent macro shots.
With the new macro configuration giving good DOF and colour rendition/ sharpness the fun is just beginning
We still haven't had a good lightning storm here, though with all the warm weather it is only a matter of time.
Those storm chases amongst you keep an eye out.
Love that last shot of the hairy face of a Spider.
ReplyDeleteAmazing detail.
Well done.

wow you get so close! Beautiful pictures as always. What set-up do you have to get such great macro pics? I'm considering putting some sort of magnifying filter onto my camera (I don't have an SLR but I have a large lens similar to an SLR, its one of those in-between cameras) to try and get some better macro pictures.
ReplyDeleteHi Fnkykntr,
ReplyDeleteI keep experimenting with macro combinations and am not scared to mix and match different companies as converters can be found on places like ebay. Presently its a 50mm Nikon prime and a Vivitar marco/2x teleconverter. Not overly close, though the depth of field is good.
A magnifying filter attached to the front can get real good results depending on how much you want to spend on it. I found the Canon 2x mag the best.Again, adapters are out there DESPITE people saying it just cant be done :)
Cheers,
Dave
