Nice pose Brian (even though I can't see the 3d ;)). I'm surprised you still have bugs around!

Well If I can get a shot of a pair mating then maybe... ;) but I suspect it's too cold for that.
Thanks for the comments and encouragement.

No the pung was not intentional (I'm always doing them unintentionally- just the way my brain works);)

I had a good choice of these- again there 3 of them on the same bush even though it was not sunny and the air temp was around 6'C and this one was sitting rock still not doing anything but contemplating the great world beyond.

Thanks Al,
Choice is getting very limited now, but yes I'm suprised there are any around as we have had a few frosts.

Man, you are one talented stereo shooter! Are you using a dual rig? I'd be amazed if you got this by using a single camera with sideshift.

Thanks Balliolman,
No all done with a single canon 300D and handheld so judging the movement is a bit tricky :)
Just as an aside, I checked through a whole lot of older shots from before I got interested in 3D shots and it's suprising how many pairs of shots actually have 3-D content- I obviously move more when handholding than I thought.

Have you checked out the Manfrotto geared slidebar, Brian, it makes macro stereo very easy to accomplish with the highly refined stereobases it allows. The bar would eliminate rotational errors and vertical misalignments. :!:
