Very nice nature shots. Just curious. What lens did you use? Is it a 1:1 macro magnification or it is heavily cropped?

Thanks Falcon, Garion, philshots and macross. You guys are too kind

Hi Falcon, I am still very new to macrophotography and clubsnap has been my source of inspiration. Hope to learn more from the expert here

Hi philshots, the pictures are slightly crop to get rid of the distortion at the edges. Taken with Fuji 602Z and reverse minolta 50mm f1.7 except the grasshopper shot, with a +4 closeup filter.

Well honestly, I never like bugs e.g. cockroach, especially those that can fly - this is one insect we can't wait to kill the moment we see one. Ladies who are afraid of them will all "run away" when they see one meters away

Your insect shots are very amazing closeUp . .. you use such swallow DOF to capture them in their where about so well. Even if I had all the macro lens, etc. I can't imagine myself going so near them to shoot ...

Thanks philshots To be frank, I'm the one that run away when I see the 'flying cockroach'. I'm ok with others bugs but flying cockroach kindda scare me. Btw, the cockroach i shot is a small one less than 1cm.
