Thanks Paul. I think I was kind of lucky to get the bee so clear since I was using an extension tube and had to manual focus. One thing good about digital cameras is that you can take 50 to 100 shots of a bug with out worrying about the cost and then just throw away all of the bad ones.

Stunner!

Is that with some macro lens? It's so sharp.

That is truly brilliant:

By the way, it's a hover fly.

Thanks Wazza! I used a Canon EF28-135mm IS USM with a Canon 25mm extension tube and a little unsharp mask; Otherwise no post proccessing at all. Wish I had a true macro lens...

Very nice! I'm still trying to get a sharp bee in flight. Maybe when the bigger, slower ones arrive! ;-)
