300D/300 f4 and nothing else.

(Yes indeed, a very minor course alteration from previously pursued bird micro photography.)

I see only one criticism here, your subject is a touch big for macro:)

I think you have to get a little closer. But when considering the absence of extension tubes and the limitations of the lens you are using, it did come out pretty nice.;)

The 300mm is a very decent 'almost Macro'. You're really getting value from your new mistress.

Hasn't the world changed now? Great capture, well exposed and composed.

Wait till you see bird macros with the 300mm + 2xTC=600 mm indeed !:D

Thanx Liv2trip...the 300mm prime (and quite a few other telephotos as well) has the capability to do significantly better than that.
