Taken with Canon 400D, Sigma 150mm macro, 1.4 teleconverter, speedlite 580M2+lumiquest softbox and the new my sister flash bracket (that is a sister holding the flash directly over the bug)

I would be gratefull if anyone on a calibrated screen could tell me if there is a colourcast to this shot - I ask as my screen and calibration gear are having a bit of an argument and whilst I am calibrated again I want to make sure its worked!

C&C welcome - thank you!

The first one in each post, for me! (Looks like it was a tiny l'il fella. Good shooting to get that kind of detail!)

Perhaps a little orange magenta? But could be my moniter. Thats a wonderfull capture. Great shots. They are becomming rarer nowdays, they used to be very common and a pest but now dissapearing and noone is sure why.

thanks all
Tiny Tiny - he was massive I tell you! Well bigish for a bug at least!

Thanks for the input TPE I thought there might be a but of orangyness to the shots - might just have been the time of day though possibly.
