What kind of lens? I have a very powerful 200mm lens, and I can never get a shot that clear now matter what I do.
These are great. I love macro shots of flies - their faces are just fascinating. Congrats on these!
Great shots, she almost looks kinda cute that close up...
What lens do you use?
Awesome shots! Were these taken with the same Tokina lens (100mm, 2.8) as the Box Elder bug? How close do you have to get to your subject for shots like these (through whatever lens you used).
The Tokina is not bad. The diffusion is just about right. Good shadowing without any harshness.
Cgipson1, I own that Tokina but this is the closest I've been able to get hand-held. I'm blown away that you could get so close that you can see the details in its eyes. Did you use extension tubes? I didn't think the Tokina had that kind of reach. How close physically were you to the fly? Love these shots by the way.
