Im so glad that you like them especially after I just started with macro photography in august.

Great, keep at it. I always found it quite a challenge to find macro subjects in the winter, but your can find them with a new way of seeing things. Have fun.

Really nice photos. Please post your setup......camera, lens, lighting, etc.

It's been a warm October here, despite a frost last week. Still plenty of insects looking to fill up before the winter. Some butterflies winter over, as do the queen bumblebees - so they're gorging themselves to build reserves.

Great set of images. Looks like some sort of ring light or ring flash.

Im using a Pentax-K70 with the smc DFA Macro 100mm f2.8 lens. About the lightning it really depends. Non moving objects like plants ill try to shoot without a flash otherwise like in the pictures above im shooting them in aperture priority mode with f11- f13, ISO 100 and the inbuild camera flash system. The rest is done by some finishing touches in lightroom.

True that. We had a really nice warm day today the temperatures almost went up to 20 degrees Celsius with plenty of insects flying around. Im glad that you like the pictures and about the flash Im using its the inbuild flash system in the K70
