Macro Drone Honeybee

Drone Honeybee · **4 Likes**

A drone that fell out the hive and was in the grass in front. The fisheye works quite well at this range, though a little cropping gives it a helping hand...

Oh My Gosh!! What an amazing capture. Very sharp, colorful, interesting and the Bokeh is fabulous. Many thanks for posting.

Many thanks Tony. It turned out better than I was hoping, though quite a shallow DoF...

Cool. Insects look so alien up close.

Thanks - it's always neat to look at things up close

Impressive close-up with the FE. I kinda want one now.

It looks better if you click on it, then click again. Awesome shot Robert. TFS

A striking shot, Robert. I've had a 10-17 for years - never occurred to me use it the creative way you used for this photo. Good stuff!

Very good macro shot Robert. It is really sharp and detailed. Well done.

I rarely use it, and was going to sell it. After this shot, I think I'll keep it

Well, it might magnify the pattern in the eye... but it also magnifies imperfections in photos...

Thanks! Give it a go with close up stuff, though working distance is not a concept, as it's non-existent!
