Macro Photos
« on: August 17, 2012, 11:12:05 PM »
I know, I know - it's a hunting forum, but I'm going crazy with nothing to hunt right now and so I tried some macro photo shots of bugs and then to avoid getting booted from the forum I threw in a couple hunting related ones.

All I can say is, "WOW!"  One of the best bee pictures I've seen.  Remington primer shot dang nice too.  I try real hard, but those just make me feel like a kindergartner.  Hunting bugs is fair game on here.  Go ahead and give us more :tup:

Great jumping spider!  If you are ever in the basin, one of the species has bright green fangs, should make a great picture.

RadSav asked for some more so here goes.  Today was one of those days at work when at the end of the day I was more behind than when I started, looking at my spider pics from this week I can empathize with this first spider.  Then to keep my man-card current I'll include some huntin' & fishin' ones.

Great pics.  I like the one in the first series of the hanging spider.  Hard to get good pics of hoppers too, nice job.   :tup:

Austrian Hunter, the lens I was using is the Canon 100mm Macro.  I haven't used it a lot, but so far I like it!
