the first one is AMAZING...what was your setup for these?

Wow! These are incredible shots. I've shot butterflies in a butterfly house and could never have achieved close ups like these, I'll echo Eclipsed...what was your set up?

Stunning series!

roentarre · 01-12-2009, 01:37 PM

Very lovely shots. So much texture and details in your image.

It is probably time for me to revisit some macro again

Thanks eclipsed and scott, I was using the K20D, DA50-200 and Raynox 250, I was also using the Sigma EF500 flash and Gary Fong Lightsphere II cloud diffuser... distance from glass to subject is about 11cm

Thanks roentarre... any time of year is a good time for macros as long as you have a good subject to shoot
