Bug macros from SBG ...
Hi All,
Haven't posted here for a long time. Got chance to test out pre-production Pentax new K-7 camera over the weekend. Took some bug macros at the SBG. Here are some of them, all taken w/ a manual 100mm macro lens w/ flash. Hope you like some of them.      |

Captured quite a few...but flash is abit harsh. Try to diffuse it some.

Re: Bug macros from SBG ...
Like your 1st picture even though the bee back was facing the camera as I can understand the extreme difficulties encountered in super-fast auto-focusing with a Macro lens. Thus getting a super sharp with great details shot is a great achievement.

Re: Bug macros from SBG ...
I love the Bee picture the most. Although you only got the back, I see it as its doing what it's suppose to do. The composition gave it a very dramactic look. ^^v
