My First Critter...

[InaGlo]

Canon 100mm macro arrived yesterday. Trust it to be a windy day, even my blooms didnt want to keep still, let alone the critters.
Think this is a Hover, was so thrilled with this & I thought it was going to be a piece of cake!
Alas the others that followed are sitting nicely in the recycle bin, lol!
Dont think CT & the like need worry about the new competition but, I think Ive got the bug, ooh, I made a funny! :coat

oooh, damn fine for a first attempt I think Gloria, very nice. Its a honey bee I think, not a hover...could be wrong though as it is a bit skinny.


Lovely shot, good clarity and focus, well done.

another vote for bee here.

Nice shot gloria, will expect to see some close-up nail shots soon too!

I'm still saving for my macro lens

I wish my first attempt had been that good, well done!

 

[CT]

Yup tis a bee Gloria. Frankly I'm totally gobsmacked that you did so well on your first undergrowth adventure.

Chuckin loads of duff shots in the bin is par for the course with macro shooting. :shrug:

 

[InaGlo]

Ahh! it is a Bee then :bonk:
Thanks for the feedback, just need to to find away to make all my blooms sit still so I can go play some more now.
As for the nails ... watch this space, lol!
