Macro fly

Macro fly · 12:05 AM

I have decided to start trying to get profficient enough at macro so as to get some decent insect shots up on the wall, this was taken with a
sigma 28-90 @
f22
1/15 sec exposure
iso200
extension tube (home made)

With the wind blowing the thin stemmed flower and the fly refusing to stay put this was a frustrating exercise, took about a dozen shots of differant flies, this turned out the best.
A little soft obviously, but to practice I intend.

For that you may need little more magnification.
