wow!! nice series!! absolutely love the last photo!!

Composition, focus, colour, all there and rocking!

Eloriel · 18th April 2008

Great shots for only a +4 filter!

The second white flower shot is a little OOF though -- or maybe it's just me ((:

Yes, the last shot is nice, I like the composition especially. Although should have reduced the aperture for larger DOF - personal opinion.

Lovely composition! Thanks for sharing!

Wow, friend, you got beautiful macro shots here with close-up lens. Fantastic!

Great shots bro

.... very nize...now you got me interested in that close-up filter thingy...

yannh · 19th April 2008

Good shots.
I suggest you use flash. Natural lighting is a bit difficult to display details of insects. Just my opinion.
