Lymantriidae!!

[stingrey]

Hi all,

Had a Macro shoot with my friends last Sunday. Captured this pair of Lymantriidae on their special moment.



S180mm, f22, 1/5 sec on MLU, AP, OB 0 comp. on Macro Flash Bracket, NC4 and Uncropped.

Comments are most welcome.

Kind regards,
Rey

Hi Rey

I think you might have forgotten to put the picture in. No pic can be seen.

Think there might be some problem on my on-line gallery, I just check it. Now i think it should be ok.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

The pic is nice. Like the DOF and clean background.

Wonderful capture!

Thanks Melvyn.

I'm a bit wondering which is the male and female here. Is the bigger one the female as the usual case in the insect world?

Think so. All the insect mating I encounter, either the male(the one on top ) is the same size or smaller then the female.

Very nice composition with clean background. There is slightly overexposed flash exposure, compensate -1/3 to -2/3 flash would help.

Johnny,

Thank you very much for your comment. Will try to play on Flash Comp settings next time.

I'm no expert here, can that be corrected at PS CS2 exposure?

Thanks a lot and hope someone can help.
