Wow. Stunning blue eyes on that dragon. I really like the last one, too. You seem to have the hang of this

Might want to clean your sensor or clone out some of those spots, though!

Excellent series . Yes the MPE-65 is a rather specialised but wonderful lens

Great work. How close was the front of the MPE65 to the dragonfly.
I would be worried about getting it in focus then the insect flying off.

MPE65 these are manual focus is that right?

ya right. a wonderful lens. although it's so hard for me to drive it perfectly, but it also brings me much more fun than any other lens could.:p

i told my friends that MPE65 is a very useful tool for lady to get fit

everytime after shot, i've got all my clothes wet like just climbed up from pool.:o and all that only because it is so hard to keep the focus still.

i never use tripod but all by hand hold. and i don't suggest use any other things for help the stability. coz u know, bugs won't wait.

hold ur camera for a while. count on ur moving (trembling) range, i think you could know when to press. then, hold your breath, press the shutter button once you get it focused. haha~~
