Took my macro out and about for the first time, here's a couple of shots. Got a bit excited, so had a bit of shaky hand syndrome to start with !
should of seen my wife's face as i came running in shouting " I found a bug !! I found a bug !! " lol
Booked myself onto a Macro Workshop - so we will see how that goes.

Well done on your first find. Enjoy the workshop.

If you are going to get into bugs of that size - then think about using some flash setup. There's some great info on Brians links.

After 25 years and 11 months my wife has not acclimatised herself to me.

But you are right about the bugs :lol:

A great start Dregsy.
