This one is another of the Hawthorn Shieldbug I found a few weekends back, with this one I was using my MP-E on a 1.4x teleconverter and it is a 21 image handheld focus stack at F/4.5. Part of the reason I love macro is the ability to see details the human eye can't normally see.
Well looks like Spring is off to a good start. I'm hoping to start seeing Damselflies in the near future, I'm banking on an early emergence this year, possibly by the end of March to early April, I will be checking the BDS sight on a regular basis :o)

After the stress of the last few weeks, I wanted to just take a simple, beautiful photo for this week's citrus theme. I spent about an hour this morning shooting this grapefruit... different angles, different backgrounds, whole, sliced, ready to eat. One of my favorite shots was one of my first ones... isn't that funny? More likely than not, I usually choose one of my very first shots when photographing something specific. I like the way the light wraps around underneath the fruit, I like the texture, I like the shape and lines, and I especially like the pores. I didn't realize grapefruit had such big pores. This reminds me of skin or a moon. I really had never studied grapefruit up close before. That's why I love macro photography so much, it gives us the ability to see an object in such beautiful, close-up detail. Macro is therapy for me.

Sometimes I try to do B&W flower close up.
This is repost of my archive picture from 2010.
Wish you a great Thursday!
My sincere thanks to all the comments and favorites from my Flickr friends.
I have been playing with this B&W conversion many times. Whenever possible with the subject matter, I always try the B&W.
Hope to have your comments on this one too. Thank you.
I love macro a lot. Please feel free to comment on my other macro shots.

THE ENGAGEMENT RING FOR FIORELLA
Many years have passed since I made the most important investment of my life....not that of having spent a bit of money to declare my love to my future wife by giving her this ring but to have placed my future in her hands...and never has an investment been more advantageous!!!!

99.9% of the Portland Rose garden's roses are still "chillin' in their buds" - but yesterday I found a few that are starting to come out. I actually love roses more at this stage then when they are fullly mature.
This is a handheld macro shot - only slight saturation and contrast enhancement (using USM) in PS CS3. No cropping, no blurring. This is how the original RAW file looks like. I used a rose behind this main rose as a background. This is why I love macro photography.
CZJ Pancolar 50mm f1.8
Pancolar is really amazing lens with wonderful color rendition and sharpness.

Spotted this little guy on our hose pipe stand.
He was tiny, smaller than a pea but with a macro lens he suddenly becomes more than just a tiny jumping spider. He has eyes, and hairs and all this detail you wouldn't normally be able to see! 💜
Does anyone know if this a certain kind of jumping spider? 🤔
Would love to know it's name if it has one 👍

This, I Love (Macro Mondays)
For this week's Macro Mondays theme, there were so many ideas to choose from. But as spring approaches, I really do love the opportunity to start doing more flower and nature photography.
I've decided that I love macro photography above all other kinds... I like how tiny things that are usually overlooked can be beautiful. I found this eraser, and I liked looking at the writing on it (don't ask me why, I'm a strange person) so I decided it could be the subject of my first attempt ever at a macro.
I have an issue! My camera (a Nikon Coolpix P60) only lets me change the aperture from F3.6 to F8.5. I'd really love to be able to mess around with depth of field. Does anyone know how I could do that with my current camera, or an affordable new one (with better macro capabilities, of course) that I could get if I sell the one that I have? My Nikon is worth about $200. Thanks a lot!

I love macro photography, I feel like I am exploring an alien planet discovering new life forms when out and about.
On this occasion, it was a familiar insect in the humble bumble bee.
There are currently 25 species of bumblebee resident in Britain. One of which, the Short-haired bumblebee (Bombus subterraneus), is currently being reintroduced after going extinct in 1988.
Britain also has two extinct bumblebee species: Cullum’s bumblebee (Bombus cullumanus) last recorded on the Berkshire Downs in 1941, and the Apple bumblebee (Bombus pomorum), a short-lived establishment on the south coast in the mid-1800s.
Seven species of bumblebee (the ‘Big 7’) are widespread across most of Britain. These are:
Red-tailed (Bombus lapidarius)
Early (Bombus pratorum)
Common carder (Bombus pascuorum)
White-tailed (Bombus lucorum)
Buff-tailed (Bombus terrestris)
Garden (Bombus hortorum)
Tree (Bombus hypnorum)
The Heath bumblebee (Bombus jonellus) sometimes joins the group above, to form a ‘Big 8’, although it is absent from much of the English Midlands.
There are 8 bumblebee species listed on at least one of the English, Welsh and Scottish conservation priority species lists. Many of these are endemic species which can be abundant in small areas. Others are more widespread but at a very low population density.
18 species are social species. They make nests, collect pollen and have a worker caste. The remaining six species have a parasitic lifestyle, taking over existing nests established by other species. These species are known as ‘cuckoo’ bumblebees and don’t have workers, just queens and males. They tend to be widespread but only at a comparatively low abundance.
British bumblebees can be divided into three groups based on queen tail colour and their rarity status. Check out our tail-colour category pages under the ‘About Bees’ section! (Some bumblebee species show variation which fit multiple categories: these are flagged up in an ‘also be aware of’ section.)
Usually, it is relatively easy to recognize the mimic species. Bumblebees are bigger, hairier and fly more deliberately with a lower-pitched buzz than most of the similar fly species. However, sometimes the mimics can be very similar to bumblebees, and short of examining a specimen the best way to separate the groups is to examine the heads. Bumblebees have long, multi-section tubular antennae, long tubular mouthparts (though these are often folded up), and relatively small eyes.
