Thought I'd post a few from the weekend. I'm still really glad I upgraded to the 60D from the T2i/550D a few weeks ago. The bigger body helps me steady the shots when shooting at awkward angles.

Thanks for looking

Natural light, 180mm macro, handheld at ISO3200. I cleaned it up to help with the noise, but I think the 60D does a passable job with noise.

This is a slight crop. I don't see many of these around, so it's fun to see another one.

This was a fun one; a new species in the yard! I didn't think there were any jumpers that were this colorful in the area.

A side view just to better show the coloration in back:

very nice Ryan, the detail on the last one is very impressive!

Looks pretty good at 3200 as well!

Lovely work Ryan.

I don't know why but I find the anthers (think that is what they are called) on plants to be fascinating. The textures and pollen..

And I love jumpers so this is pretty well a prefect set for me.

Love the jumpers! I've seen that first species here in Vegas many times, but not the second.

Thanks again, folks

Moose, I wish we had more around. I think these are probably the cutest species I've seen in my area.

A fabulous set of shots - really cute jumper shots.

Really like the composition of the two agapanthus stamen

lovely snail and excellent Agapanthus close ups. I personally find the flash reflections in the Jumpers' eyes very distracting due to the shape of the diffuser.
