V for Victory, Pt. 5 - _TNY_0556
A while back, I posted a shot of a male v-fronted jumper (Aelurillus v-insignitus) from the Käringboda nature reserve just outside Nynäshamn, Sweden, taken using the macro lens in my phone (a Poco F3) here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/51151288959 and was excited about the quality possible from a phone.
Obviously I didn't just shoot it with a phone camera so then I took a couple of shots using proper gear with the Canon 5Ds and a Canon 100mm macro lens like this one - and one here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/51161731576/ and here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/51893895575/
Since mister Jumper decided to hang around, I went for a lens swap and fitted the Canon MP-E65mm for the best possible quality. This lens has variable magnification and was set to 3:1 mag when taking this shot: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/51519647088/
The v-fronted jumper is a pretty small species (the male is between 4 and 5 mm in body length) and looking at the top of it's head, it should be fairly self-explanatory what's "v-fronted" about it. These guys also have wonderfully green eyes which always look cool.
