8 sharp (bug) macros: Indoors with flash! (long load)

[Bilbo_baggin]

So all these are taken indoors, removing the leaves off a fuschia bush and with the camera tripod mounted and hotshoe diffused flash, they are all really quite sharp.

Sigma 105 with 3 extension tubes.

Last one a 100% crop. Some totally uncropped, others cropped slightly to A4 dimensions.


I thought at first it was a leaf-hopper/frog-hopper, but at the moment I'm not so sure. Whatever it is, it walks very quickly, and it measured just 4mm in length.


Sorry I got carried away taking eight, but I was enjoying myself...

Hehe, 5 and 7 are great for the posing angles Looks like he's clocking what you're doing there

Last one has really good detail for something so small.
