I was enjoying my down time yesterday I did find my ability to get a decent macro somewhat frustrating. But with my companion Butterfly and a backup camera, my Canon Powershot SX10is, it really was not problematic. One thing in hindsight is bees are not great posers. They are well busy you know and cannot be bothered with the paparazzi. I was able to get a few decent shots at the long end of the zoom on the Canon of a couple of wasps, my companion Butterfly and one of the views from my court side seat to nature yesterday.
Down Time Part 2

I am a 55 year old guy who is asking questions about life like "what does it all mean?" and " how come hair will not grow on my head but grows real fast on my ears and back?" you know the deep stuff. I am married and have been for 24 years to the same wonderful woman( read into that: she puts up with me and I married up). I believe in Jesus Christ and that He died for all. The rest I am still working on. View all posts by The Jagged Man
This afternoon I gave my first try at macro and my subjects were bees, and yes they are not great subject because they never stop
I am glad someone else feels my pain! I did enjoy watching them though and have a renewed admiration for those who do bee and other flying things well.
Well done.
Thanks Mike, All I did was show up the rest worked itself out man. ~John
Not quite. You knew where to be and how to be to shoot your bee. Is that a bee?
The images are sharp, the process clean, and the light is excellent.
