Hoverfly (macro)

[sypix]

Got a Sigma 150mm macro about 6 weeks and have been playing with it on and off. Got these shots in the garden tonight.

Thanks, and yes I had noticed. (I've now cloned out the dust spots on my copy, on my computer)

Great shots Torpedo !!
What flash setup are you using ?

 

[sypix]

Just the 20D's onboard flash. One of the reasons that I went for th 150mm was that I thought (was hoping) that the working distance would allow me to use the onboard flash.
