Thirsty Hover

Liking this alot, bit different from one being on a leaf or such.
Did you use a drop of sugar water to entice it???

This is a drop of honey i placed to shoot ants, I put the honey on a piece of white plastic and placed it on the ground, went out later and found this :)
 
Great shot John, so clear.
Can I ask, what lens and settings were used?
 
Stunning mate the clarity is absolutely awesome! F51 though :thinking:
 
F51? DAYUUUMMM!!!!

That is why stacking never even came into the equation :).

Superb shot John. I take it you did light this with flash as well as I've tried F45 with a relatively High ISO before now and found it tough to get a shot with any kind of illumination.

Cheers Ian, Yes i did use flash ;)
 
Thats a superb shot and having looked at your Flickr your macro work is awesome.
 
amazing detail... didnt know lenses had a F51 O_0 have to check mine :)

judging by the shadow it seems u used a soft box separate from the front, but could be wrong of course :)
 
:thumbsdown: Will you please stop raising the bar.......I am struggling here to get anything like this......:thinking:

Cracking shot...
