Re: Damsels I've known
Don, a question or two more on "The Fly."
How close was your lens to it? Did you crop this image?
Which extender did you use?
Do you like the 180 macro more than the 100?
Thanks much.
Al

Re: Damsels I've known
Hi Alan
I'll have to take better notes because your questions were asked in another forum as well.
I was probably in the 2' range, front of lens to fly. It is cropped, probably 50% No extension tube, though I did shoot another fly last night with 1.4 t-con and tube. I'll post it here tonight, but the detail isn't any better, only no crop was needed. I like both lens equally for quality. The 180mm works better for bugs with the longer working distance.

Dan, I love the yellow!

Re: Damsels I've known
The pennant is a treat for the eyes.

Re: Damsels I've known
Got a few shots recently, bug I think the diffused light from the leaf worked well on this one.
5D II + 180mm/3.5 + 1.4x TC

Re: Damsels I've known
Nice Dann, like the diffussed lighting as well. Ya gotta kinda wish that bright spot didn't run quite so far down the scene, but as they say, ya take waht ya get. Hope to see some more from you real soon. I seem to have moved onto dragons lately, but I'll but a few up in case anyone is interested. Also, now that we are in full swing season wise I hope others will post as well.
