Hiya all,

Well this is where I make a complete ass of myself, Lester has very kindly sent me a Tutorial in a simplistic form so I though I'd give it a go :o might be easy for some but I'd rather pick my way through a forest full of Claymores :lol:

Well I am not familiar with this Lester method so I really can't say anything about it. but I do like how you get the fly to pose for you :D

Great shots, I like #2 better, it looks like the fly is trying out to be a dancer :)

Hiya PiRho,

I rightly got my wrists slapped for posting to many images the other day, got a bit carried away :lol:

Anyway I'm as thick as a brick when it comes to understanding things computer wise, I just get a mental block :o so Lester very kindly sent me a tutorial in the most simplistic form & I seem to have got things right :D:D

Cheers for now

It's been too long since I've been in here :gasp: but now I have just built a new PC so I will be able to actually process the shots I take LOL. I still haven't broken down to get a real macro yet :( but it is on my short list :D

tsk tsk tsk you should know better then posting too many images <quickly runs to check the rules>

Well done Mark.

Love that first shot, it looks like the fly is holding that droplet, its gorgeous.

Both good Mark but #1 is amazing- with a good refraction too !
So what was the tutrorial on ? "how to get flies to balance water drops on their legs" ? :)

i had the worst time trying to get the codes right also...i was probably driving the forum crazy...i still cant get the gif animations right without help..lol

Nice shots. i like the refraction in the droplet in #1, and the second is nice shot also.!
