Second go around with the 100 macro

Well the rental from Tempe Camera ran out at 6 pm yesterday...

but yesterday morning I took it out again, and went to the flower patch.
This second go around made me realize how lucky I was to get that close to the bee the first day.
They were much more lively and active in the morning--making getting close pretty tricky.

Do you guys shoot stuff like this in bursts? Because of the extremely shallow depth of field?

Side note: love the 100L ...the bokeh is so tasty from this lens!!

Here's a few from Day 2 of Shooting Macro.

NICE SHOTS!!!!

Nice set! I really like #2

Nice shots, indeed, esp. if new to macro and the lens.

nice set.

thanks guys! I feel lucky to have caught these little guys with such a fine lens.

Unfortunately the lens had to go back, but the boss-lady liked the product shoot results and brought up the idea of renting it regularly.
So here's hoping for more in the future!

Great work.

Lovely shots!

Regarding your question, personally, I use single shot and the "moving back and forth" system, taking the shot right before the eyes of the subject come into focus (takes a bit of practice, but I found out I get more keepers this way).
