Someone Said Bees???

[Cobra351]

Ok, to continue with the Bee thing here I'll post a few. These are a few of my favorites from this year, at least so far! All have been printed into 8x10's and I think look better on print, but anyway...

All were taken with the Canon 350D and 100 2.8 Macro.

Hope you enjoy.


For some reason this is my favorite so far:

Very nice photos.

Lovely images! Of course, now I want to buy that Canon Macro lens. :)

Great shots, just a quick question on lighting. Did you (or have you ever) used one of those ring lights for macro photography??? I've always wondered what kind of job they did, but since I haven't really done much macro photography, I've never REALLY looked into it.

L8r,

Thanks all, I'm glad you liked them! I can't recommend this Macro lens enough!

Thanks, and no, I never have. None of these shots even used a flash (the inboard flash is all I currently have). I really do want one of the Canon ring lights though, current money saving conflict between one of those and a new lens!

Fantastic pictures. I'm envious.

Those are super! Love the detail, color, bokeh - and those bee faces are unique.
