Wow. I am NOT using my 100mm lens to its potential.

How do you get the creatures to keep still? I sweet talk them but it never works.

Have a wheelie nice day!

Focus and DOF is very pleasing, Lighting is a tad harsh (sunlight is a killer i know) but over all it's a great set and variety

Thanks! Lighting has been my nemesis. I actually just got a diffuser, but forgot to use it today on the snail and ant shots I don't know how you guys get such awesome lighting without a flash spot on the subject.

I can't speak for anyone else but lighting has become a obsession of mine over the last month or so, i've spent countless hours designing and testing a flash diffuser i've built. It still has a ways to go but its been a blast building it. The only limit is your own imagination

Lovely set Ace.

Shot 8 is wonderful IMO.

One of the biggest things to imporve my work (apart from practice) was when I sorted the flash diffusion on the MT-24. That then allowed me to simply use the camera, and concentrate on the subjects. I have had one or two nice shots since....

I now need to do the same for the standard flash, and then pretty well everything wrong will be me, not the gear

very nice set Ace, the light is working good as it looks very even, maybe stop down your flash compensation will help alot with softening your light a bit more, 8 and 10 are wonderful
