Hi folks! I'm a geek with a macro lens who is really passionate about macro photography. All of my macro photos to date are single frames. I've experimented with focus stacking, but for the subjects and magnifications that I shoot (1x to 5x) I just haven't found a need for it. I'm gonna include a photo I took about 10 years ago. Here are the details:
I baited this honeybee with some sugar syrup to give her a reason to let me get close. Zucchini pollen is huge! This is a frame from 2009, and I'd like to recreate this shot with my current gear.
Tech Specs: Canon 40D (F13, 1/250, ISO 100) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (around 3x) + a diffused MT-24EX (both flash heads on the Canon flash mount, E-TTL metering). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held.
First... This picture is amazing!
