I like the bee in the pollen, lovely colors and very sharp.

Seriously, you and nates should get together and make babies.

Sick shots. I rarely shoot macro at that scale since i dont own a macro lens but i am always blown away everytime i see insect pictures posted on here. Insects have so many details. :thumbup:

Great shots. Do you use any sort of flash or is it all natural lighting?

I suspect he is using a flash, shoot fast and pray.

That's what I thought, curious about the details though. Is it a ring flash, a normal strobe, of camera flash or just a properly diffused pop-up.

I use a diffused 430ex on a bracket and insect macro ninja skills!

Here's a pic of my set-up:

These bees are really funny when they sleep, no falling out of bed when you're jaws are clamped on a stalk!

whats the curved bracket your using to hold your flash?!??! i realy like that.
and your cord is ttl?

Type "c flash bracket" into ebay and you will get something similar, it's a bit cheap and comes loose quite a lot but it does the job. I have now got a small ballhead so I can move the flash about a bit easier. And yes its E-TTL.
