All C&C and ratings are quite welcome. As a serious hobbyist

trying to improve, I appreciate any ideas on how this shot would be

better. Will try to return the favor.

 

Taken with a 28 to 135 wide angle zoom with a +4 magnifier lens

in bright sun. Bee was about 125mm away. Shot at 1/250 f9 iso

100 to stop action and get best DOF without noise.

The simplest way to get a macro shot! I have extension tubes and intend to buy macro flash led lamp or real macro ring flash and God knows whether some bee will ever stand for me, ha!

Best regards DAVE!

Pierre, bees never stall still!! Ya just have to be faster than they are (shutter speed that is). You are lucky if they are at least walking instead of buzzing. Thanks for the visit.
