Macro Bug

[iwatkins]

Hi All,

Haven't been able to get out to shoot the past few evenings due to the weather :(

Anyway, lacewing (what we call them anyway) has been fliting about in my office tonight so been playing with the Sigma 105 macro I bought recently. Thing wouldn't sit still and I couldn't get a tripod near so had to use flash. Even so, you can see his rather wacky looking eyes OK.

Cheers

Ian

He was about an inch long not including his antenna.
