Old Blue Eyes

[Donde]

Trying my hand with a Zeiss Touit 50 2.8. Depth of field is the big challenge with this lens. This fly is less than a centimeter, about 8mm long.

Nice work.
What is this background I see in some of your shots? I really like it.

Really nice fluorescent colors.

Dof is always a challenge with macro lenses at close workingdistances, even if you close down the aperture to f/11 or over. The important thing is to concentrate on getting the relevant parts in focus, usually the eyes or head area. Looks like you achieved this here. Nice one.

Another greatly colourful subject.

Zul the background is the wall of my house. Space thank you, I'm learning little by little.

I agree 8mm is a tricky size, I would only add try lots of different angles as well.

Would love to see the Zeiss Touit deployed on a portrait of one of you beautiful Colombiana friends. Flies and moths are nice and all, but I love people pics.

Derrel understood. Have to wait for end of quarantine here though.
