Very nice, subtle shot! Me like

LenWick · 05-11-2009, 10:49 AM

ok, that is one of the better uses of razor thin dof that I have seen - I like the contrast between the dof line (? or zone?) and the fence grain - the dof also makes the face look more like a mask, which is really cool in this shot

That's a great capture. I like the narrow DOF.

thomascdk · 05-11-2009, 11:22 AM

I wouldn't have thought you could get that narrow dof with a 2.8. No PP?

Thanks for comment Thomas!
DOF is original. I have tweaked only the colors.

All been said, excellent image and technique!

The setting looks hazardous for the bee. Good capture

cupic · 05-12-2009, 05:22 AM

Fantastic approach

cheers

When you get that close it's an eternal struggle to get enough DOF!

Great shot, makes me wish I had a macro lens...

Razor thin is right on the money.

Awesome capture.

Indeed that is a great head shot of a nasty pest.

Excellent photo of a dangerous insect. The general tone of a photo has underlined this threat.
