First try at macro in the garden

Welcome Dave, macro is quite hard isn't it? Like the last one a lot, very nice first images there, keep at it.
 
I think that bee shot is great. (y)
 
Very good first attempts. The Bee In Flight is superb. May I ask your EXIF for that shot?
 
Thanks for the welcome and nice comments, much appreciated :)

EXIF for the bee shot was:

Exposure 0.002 sec (1/640)
Aperture f/5.0
Focal Length 100 mm
ISO Speed 800
Exposure Bias 0 EV
Exposure Program Aperture-priority AE
Subject Distance 0.77 m
 
nice shots .. yes its dam hard to get right macro but so rewarding when you do and its dam addictive well done
 
The bee shot was more of a fluke than anything. Was trying to get a shot of one feeding but they dont stay still long enough, they always seem to move just as you are getting them in focus :bang: Hopefully next time!

luck or skill, who cares, you got the shots and they are brilliant. Been trying to catch a bee like that for a couple of weeks now and still trying. Well done for beating me to it aswell.
 
Brilliant bee! Been trying to get a bee with lavendar just like that for ages. Failed to manage it so far. Blooming things.
