As the title says, this was my first real try with an insect. Luckily this fella held still for quite awhile before getting bored with me. It would help if I had a true Macro lens, but that will be awhile. 1. {} 2. {} 3. {} 4. {} Comments and c&c appreciated
Thanks Tom and Rich. Tom - These were shot with the D70s, Sigma 70-300 APO DG Macro (in Macro Mode) handheld. Exif should still be in the photos but from what I remember, I was shooting f/8, 1/500th, with a SB-600 + Stofen Diffuser off camera. Now that I've told you you can probably see where the flash placement was.
very nice series that first one is my favorite, as well you did a very nice job can't wait to see more
Thanks again everybody. I was also amazed by his eyes and how they're half yellow, half green. You can never see that with the human eye (at least I can't).
