These were captured hand-held a couple of days ago in our garden using a Raynox 150 close-up lens on a Panasonic FZ200 bridge camera with KX800 twin flash, using f/8 (equivalent to f/28 for APS-C) at 1/1600 sec. The raw files were processed using a "one size fits all" batch process in DXO Optics Pro 10 to produce DNG files which were then processed in Silkypix Developer Pro 7, mainly using common parameter settings followed by cropping and output to TIFF. For the images in the first post I used Nik Dfine on the TIFF files to smooth out small-scale sharpening artefacts in the backgrounds introduced by the Silkypix sharpening, resaving as TIFF. I used Faststone Image Viewer to output 1300 pixel high JPEGs from the TIFF files. There are 1300 pixel high versions of these images in this album at Flickr.
Subjects have been very thin on the ground this year, both in our garden and at the nature reserves I have visited. I have not seen any shield bugs in the garden for several months. It was good to see them (still all rather small) on three plants in different areas of the garden.
