No wonder you used telephoto, who'd want to come close to that monster.

On the other hand, after that rattlesnake this is slightly less dangerous. Joking aside, marvelous capture.

Not to be completely offtopic, Tamron 70-200

Great shot, I too like the DA*300 for macro and great bokeh. That fat girl looks like she is ready to drop a few ootheca!

Miranda 50mm f1.9 - not the sharpest lens, but crazy bokeh

Tiny mushroom

Almost some "swirl" there ... n'est-ce pas ?!

Here's one I just found due to another contest.

This chrysalis was set up in my cluttered garage to do a time lapse of the butterfly emerging on the day I knew it would happen.

The junk in my garage is turned into a smooth backdrop by the DA*300 here.

Looks like an Aphid.

Squish it!
