Foraging Honeybee VI
I have been working on my diffusers again, and I think I am finally happy with the light quality at life size magnification. I went out to see how well the light looks and found a honeybee that was foraging in slow motion. Partly cloudy weather and cool temps may have been effecting her metabolism. I took this frame when she paused to clean herself.
Tech Specs: Canon 90D (F11, 1/125, ISO 200) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (set to 1x) + a diffused MT-26EX-RT, E-TTL metering, -2/3 FEC. This is a single, slightly cropped, frame taken hand held. In post I used Topaz Denoise AI and Clarity in that order. Shutter and ISO set to expose the sky in the background.
