    Robin

    Thought it may have been something like that. Its been doing it since Saturday, I just managed to stop it from doing it today by smearing both the windows with washing up liquid to take the reflection away. Either that or borrow an air rifle j/k Hopefully the darn bird will forget about its...

    Robin

    I don't usually do many dicky bird shots, But this weekend we had this crazy robin attacking our mirrored patio doors. It'd land on the fence then go in for the attack, repeatedly, all day long. Any way it gave me a chance to get some shots in. All C&C welcome. Robin 1 by mick.1965, on...

    Jumping spider.

    The clue is in the name :) Just watch them, it will become apparent. Jumping spiders are very small, 5mm across, they don't weave a web to catch their prey, they will jump, pounce upon it. All the ones I've seen, seem to be black and white striped ( also called the zebra spider ) There...

    What length macro, does length matter

    I use a 60mm macro. and get pretty decent results. I also used a nifty fifty with tubes before buying the 60. Nearly all macro's will offer you 1:1 magnification whether it be a 60mm 90 or 105 and up. The only advantages of a longer lens is the slightly better working distance. But with...

    Massive Macro

    Yeah the massive one is working ok now. Nicely detailed shot of one battered 50 pence coin.:thumbs: Although there are a few sections that seem really oof. Not sure if that was caused by photoshop or you just missed focus on occasion. Really good effort though, something to go on the to do...

    Massive Macro

    The link to the "Massive" one is only linked to your 1024 image on flickr. where's the big one ? (ooo err :) ) How many photos are stitched ? 6 ish ? ie 1/6 of the coin at a time ? At 1:1 with a 450d you can get roughly half the coin on the sensor, so 62 MP what's that? about 3:1 ? What lens...

    Focus Stacking

    The way I did it wit my nifty fifty and tubes Camera>tripod set the lens to manual focus. Focus on the front of the object > take the shot > move focus ring slightly > take the shot.....and so on Not sure which nifty youve got mk1 or 2. but the mk2 (mine) has a crappy focus ring. but if you...

    Bubble Macro

    What does the glycerine do ? stop them from popping so quick ? I managed these just using a ring of wire( like in a child's bubble blowing bottle). I had about 10 seconds before it'd pop. and had to re dip it. It got frustrating after a while...lol Bubble surface 1 by mick.1965, on Flickr...

    Bubble Macro

    I agree, these are more of the surface of the bubble, than the bubble itself. Bloody hard to do, I've tried them my self. The last one particular is good :thumbs:
