You do know youre the reason I hate my macro lens dont you?
Every time I look at your stunning pictures, I think 'thats what I want from a macro lens!'

These are fabulous as always, and I cant wait to see more bugglies like these from you now the weather is warming up.

 

[Duckydoodle]

I hate bugs and insects so much but you keep taking these stunning shots that make me look at them. You're way too good at this

 

[Didgi Widgi]

how did you get the bug to pose like that? did you pay it or ?

 

[ekimeno]

I'm blown away as usual

 

[Borats Baby]

Good god Alby,

Any closer and you'd be taking X-rays .

 

[Deleted member 3428]

Thanks for passing and all your kind words.
Didgi they were just drinking so were very tolerant of having a camera pushed into their faces.
Mark: working distance was about 4-5 inches.

[dellipher]

i Want to pretend that butterflies are always beautiful!

 

[pearce_jj]

Amazing as ever!

So will adding one of these £25 wonder lenses to my Fuji S6500 enable me to have a bash at some close-ups?

 

[Deleted member 3428]

Joe: thanks for looking
Dellipher: No need to pretend all butterflies are beautiful
James: Yes one will, go for the dcr 250 and practice.
