Hornet Eating a Pear

i just love all your work it's amazing.

Consistant and excellent thats how I would decribe your photos Mark.

EXCELLENT!

So nice! Amazing!!!!!!!!!!

Can macro be any better? Superb!

GREAT !!

Just as I said on PhotoSig...This is an excellent photograph with razor sharp focus, vivid yellows and I have no suggestions for improvement. Flawless.

I've never seen it's equal!

I thought my yellow jacket pic was pretty good; but I'm not even in the running! Thank you Mark for your many, awesome shots and more than that, the inspiration you give the rest of us.

i think they should re-christen macro photography as 'mark plonsky'

This is where I would expect to see this picture! Great job!

Wow... what a shot! Rarely have I seen such an outstanding shot with razor sharp focus. Makes me wonder if I ever would take a shot like this.

and so the happy face was born.....

 

Stunning work - amazing clarity - obviously this isnt a disposable wedding camera :) - I respect your work and the fact that you post here.

Love all your work , congratulations !!

Great sharpness and clarity, feels real. I only ask, how? A Powershot G3, that seems like modest equipment to get this type of shot, you really have the technique down. Maybe you should write a tutorial for photo.net on insect photography. I can only image my attempts to get a shot like this with just a 4x zoom digital camera would be no where near this good. I envy you.

 

Also, normally I do not like insect photos mainly because I not much of a critter person, but this one feels sort of calm and almost cute in a way, I don't get the repulsive feeling I do with other insect photos. Perhaps it is because of the closeness of it all and especially the background blur and even lighting and smooth, even tones.

Thanx for the kind words. You note "Maybe you should write a tutorial for photo.net on insect photography". I have written a tutorial for Photo.net here.

No other way to describe it.

thats really great now

Mark, you are a macro-god!!!

You are the king of the bug people! Awesome!

Incredible. Your work is great.

When you have some minutes, please have a look on my pics, I would like to have your opinion.

 

Thank you.
