Tech Specs: Canon 70D (F11, 1/30, ISO 200) + a Canon EF-S 60mm macro lens with 37mm of extension + a diffused MT-24EX (+1/3 FEC) with head "A" set as the key and head "B" as the fill. This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held.

Technique: I used a syringe to inject 2:1 sugar syrup into a Basil flower. Ignore the shutter -the flash is the only significant light source on the subject. I dragged the shutter to expose the background. This time the bees recognized me and knew what I was doing, going directly to the flowers as soon as I added the syrup. Lately I've been looking for these head on vertical compositions -hopefully it's out of my head now. I shot this scene with the camera held horizontally but framed it, and adjusted the position of the flash heads, for a vertical shot. To me it's easier to take portraits with the camera held in a landscape orientation.

I've just got a new camera with a macro lens. I've wanted one for ages so now I'm having fun! This is some moss that grows by our fish pond.

i dished out my old raynox macro lens, thinking it would never work with my canon. however, i was pleasantly surprised by the results.

Una florecita muy pequeñita y muy elegante.
