spotted this in the garden and thought i might try to get a pic of it. At the moment i don't have any macro gear, so i put an old olympus om 50mm and 2x converter and had a go. dof not very good but this is my best attempt yet.
Any comments welcome.

I'm no macro expert, but I'd say you had a damn good crack at that!

looks really sharp and excellent colours

Don't let it get near your rhododendrons though!!!

Very sharp one mate! olympus 50mm are one of the best sharp lenses and your shot proved it
