Last shot could do with a bit more DOF but heck, that would be nitpicking.

Choice shots, these.

William, when will we go shooting together again?

Very nice series.

The colours are very pleasing to the eyes.

Excellent!

What lens are you using?
Is it a dedicated macro lens or a normal lens with a macro filter attachment?

Have you "claimed your prize" and went to the US already?
Any shots to share on that yet?

thank you for viewing and kind comments.

I'm using a 105mm macro lens, flash with omni-bounce.

As the lighting is getting worst when taking these shot, that why i using larger aperture eg. f13 & f8 for pix 2 and 3 to allow more light and prevent dark background.

Prize claimed. During March, I went to US for the National Geographic Expedition. Lots of slides taken, still processing them.
