Just curious though, how much distance is there between the subject and the front surface of the lens when capturing images like the honeybees? Very cool shots, by the way! 5D | G9 | SD1000 | 16-35mm f/2.8 II | 24-105 f/4 IS | 70-200mm f/2.8 IS | 35mm f/1.4 | 100mm f/2.8 macro | 135mm f/2 | 580EX | 580EX II

How considerate of it. The Captain and crew finally got their stuff together, now if we can only remember where we left it.
