Found this ladybird on the fence and shoved the 70D into the area which disturbed her bit - but after having a lens stuck in her face for a few shots she eventually found a nice nook and cranny to tuck her nose into and settled back down again.

Cheers Lester. It's tough on my old knees now, but I try occasionally :)

Great shots! How do you like that lens? Need to put some $$ into repairing my 100mm F/2.8 & was thinking of replacing it if repairs cost were too high.

Looking into this lens & the 25mm 2.5 -5x.

Thank you. :)

The lens is full manual, so takes some getting used to, but given time, it becomes very good to use. The optics are very impressive for the price.

Paul.

Thank you. I shoot full manual with a focusing rail and stacking software so that's not a problem. I also shoot with up to 5 Yongnuo flashes (4 manual, I ETTL that I set to manual for macro). Also, my subjects are dead. Thanks again.
