Hey guys,
Figured I’d throw a few of these up. I’ve just been taking pictures of anything lately since I haven’t fished much and one thing I have a lot of is these guys around with the blooming trees and flowers in my yard. They were taken in very harsh direct sunlight. I know they’re not great. All they did was make me realize how much I would like to have a good macro lens some day. The big ones(which I just call carpenter bees) move extremely quickly and erratically. Any tips for getting better results on bugs like this. I was shooting my D80 and 18-200. These are all crops from my originals. I know waiting for better light will help a bunch.
That last shot is pretty rad, I like it a lot!

I knew those don’t sting, I was referring to that quick sporadic nature, that you mentioned. Love that one winged flying bandit in your last shot. pretty cool actually! 🙂
