JXV Posted December 5, 2016 Share Wow! LOADS of detail in there JXV! What macro lens and body did you shoot that on?Quite old.....Nikon D200 with 105VR macro lens.... in the dark and drizzle using a torch to focus manually and then diffused off-camera SB800 flash for the actual pic..... nowadays one could probably get quite close to this with a modern camera phone. Insects slow down a lot when cold and wet so you can get up close.

Mntboy Posted December 5, 2016 Share That is not a dragonfly/baby dragonfly munching on the bee. It is commonly known as a robber fly. Family Asilidae. They prey on smaller insects, commonly bees and other flies. I have attached a close-up pic of a similar insect (pic taken with something a bit optically more high end than a phone so I hope it qualifies here). View it on a tablet or monitor for best impact. I wouldn't want to meet one of these in a dream. Sent from my SM-G935F using TapatalkI stand corrected! Very nice picture. Glad I'm not an insect.

Mntboy Posted December 6, 2016 Share Saw this near the point, in Mossel Bay at the start of the St Blaize trail. Decided to shoot it in greyscale to give it an extra bit of character!

Tumbleweed Posted December 7, 2016 Share One of the girls at work tells me her hubby has a porn addiction...to cloud porn! Think there are some other addicts here too. He has set up an Instagram account for it. Will ask Toni for the handle tomorrow. And that is a stunning pic, Flowta!

Thanks Tumbles I've been slowly working away through pictures that I've collected since 2003 and never did any proper sorting (still a novice in that respect). Makes it worthwhile to find a good one Tumbleweed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
