That came out really well. Now I have to try bugs! Just not many around these parts in summer.

A Claytons bee! I have a friend who is an avid macro fiend who got a K5 about 6 months ago and said he hasn't been shooting much as he was disappointed with the K5's performance, think I have to send him here!

Holy Beeswax Charlie! This is fantastic!! You have set the bar very high. I will have to reshoot my bees on the black eyed susan. Thank you so much for sharing!!!!!!

Very, very stunning pic with a lot of detail. Well done!

Every time that I take a picture and it turns out well like this one I have to try and do it again.It's a vicious cycle that never seems to end but I think that we've all been there.---charliezap

Your macros are becoming stunning to say the least. That is some fine detail in this one. Fantastic shot.

Thanks Susan.Using the flash with the macro lens and trying to make it look non flash has opened up another chapter for me.--charliezap
