Hornet Portrait

fabulous macro - terrific detail!!

oh my god ... thats more than perfect Mark! I am not sure I will ever know how you do this ... and great colors and frame. VERY GOOD! hard to say but probably the best one, so far ...

And again......i lay down! Fabulous macro!

Very nice, very original! Only wish the background were lighter, that would have made the lighting more natural and really pop the bristles and the antenna. However, background control on an agile subject like this is not easy!

Well done and interesting.

 

This is one of the best close-ups I´ve ever seen! (Thank you for taking away some of my fear for bugs... this one looks very kind...!)

Spectacular, Mark! Anna

Alien Bee -- Awesome

A great macro.

You're always the best, Mark !!

Mark thanks for sharing you techniques (photosig). Don't worry about competition, for awhile anyway. I've got the equipment but not your talent. Go get your book published!

Wow Mark, unbelivable shot. What a detail and color, stunning. I came back to this shot after going through your folders, I got to tell you Mark that your macro work is just FANTASTIC!!!!! I am totally imprest by the details of your subjects. It is like you have entered a new world where we (humans) are the little ones....Keep it up I will be watching ;)

Lovely shot. Teach me how to use the lens in reverse?

Great. 7/7 --nothing more to say.

Another fantastic portrait mark.
