Originally posted by Wombat Apart from the splendour of the photographs, the splendour of Nature constantly amazes me in members' macro work. I've never seen an insect like #2 in my life - blew me away! Superb work, Marcus.
I was quite delighted at the image captured as I was not sure what was shot initially. Only after downloaded into the notebook diid I actually see the insect in action.

Tks, stephen. I was shooting other butterflies and insects when this other bees suddenly appeared and zoom in for its prey.

The shots were captured in Jpg and raw. I think No 1 was shot in Jpeg.. Process in lightroom. Indeed the A200 lens makes a lot of difference for my macro. Sharpness is great. Working distance is essential especially for bugs and sensitive insects. The mating insect was shot about 1 foot away and with more than 10 burst of flash, the mating insect continued without intimidation.Flash 540.
