First macro in ages

[dod]

Not up to the standard of some of the stuff shown here recently but not too bad, any C&C welcome

I can't fault that - it's a great shot.. nice n sharp with lots of detail.

Not really, the shots you and pxl8 have been posting lately have been superb, I might not have commented on too much lately but it doesn't mean I don't notice In fact you might end up costing me money, I've got about six sets of bellows on my watch list at the moment

But thanks

So modest Dod ...:nono:

It is a stunning shot m8 ...

 

[MattEg]

Excellent shot dod.
You've captured the detail very well

What kit did you use?
I take it it wasn't just the 100 macro.

Beautifully clear and sharp but I've decided flies are too easy. Don't know what I'll shoot when I get round to it but no more flies for me

 

[P-E]

Thats an excellent shot

I take it it wasn't just the 100 macro.

20D, main reason I kept it, 100mm macro and the new 580EX

 

[Ally]

Great shot!

That's an excellent shot Doddy! Not too bad indeed!

Nice shot, ticks all the boxes - good focus, good detail, clean background, well lit.

Only thing I would change would be a more side on view to maximize the DoF. Of course that's not alway possible and for this angle you nailed sweet spot for the focus - the leading edge of the wing leads the eye into the focal point perfectly.
