Preparing for take off...

[Bend The Light]

Just caught this guy as he was leaving...

Like it?

Awww. Nice.
And it's a pretty flower "he" landed on, too.
Again: what light set-up do you have for your macro photos?

This is taken with 135mm Russian M42 lesn, on 50mm macro tubes. Off-camera flash is on a bracket to the left side, it's a big old flash diffused with 2 layers of (soft) toilet paper. This is triggered by the on-board flash which is -2 on the flash exposure compensation.

Not an ideal set up, but it doesn't do bad.

Cheers
