Hi,


Not sure what kind of flowers these are, shot in Thailand.

Of course mine isn't real macro, since it is nowhere near 1:1, but I guess it just fits in here better than in best nature...


It was really hard to get this bee/wasp whatever it may be, in focus(FF really has great DOF [], which isn't always that easy to control)... I used AF and it was hunting a LOT, but then I couldn't use MF because it was flying to inaccurate...sigh, it gave me a hard time, but I like the end-result!

By the way muc, I just love the insect-photos you shoot! Really cool creatures []

Hi Sheiky,


Thanks,


like your shot in flight, not easy to capture.
