Had the first dragonfly captures of the year in thegarden today- a common darter. It allowed me to get pretty close
Playing with a Canon 50D that appears to have a lot of miles left on it. The lens is a Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM.
Sidirokastro, 4 August 2012. Macro photography. Reversed lense (Canon EF 50mm ƒ/1.8 II stoped down to ƒ/11) attached in front of the EF 85mm ƒ/1.8 screwed on the camera, aperture wide open. Flash Canon 430EX II with a white piece of paper tied on top of it, in order to reflect the light downwards 3~4cm in front of the lens where the focus point is. The result is a good enough image quality and lighting. A common fly sitting on the edge of a leaf.
Camera: Canon 1000D
Lens 1: Canon EF 50mm ƒ/1.8 II reversed
Lens 2: Canon EF 85mm ƒ/1.8
Strobe: Canon 430EX II
I saw the dewdrops on my rose and knew I had to take a picture - great opportunity to play with my macro.
