Hello. Trying out my Dad's 5D with my 100mm 2.8L macro lens. My camera is a T3i so I was fired up to play with a full frame.

I am happy with these but my own CC is to use a wider depth of field next time. I was handheld and wanted to blur the background so I wanted a fast shutter, open aperture but I probably went too far.

Reader CC is really appreciated. Wondering about the exposure too.

I've done some looking in the books and have this called as an Indian Skipper. Please advise if I've missed the ID.


Thanks in advance.

Look goos - agree it's a skipper but i have no idea what species.
With natural light macro it's normally a battle to get a reasonable aperture for DOF (eg F11) and having enough shutter speed for handheld shots to stop motion blur.
