I took these images in Cornwall with my Macro lense I recognise the Six- spot Burnet but not sure about the others. Macro photography is fairly new to me and I must admit at times I find it difficult to get good images especially when I see some of the fantastic images taken some Cornish based photographers that I know. Still I enjoy the challenge and enjoy seeing the wonders of these small creatures.
Hi Anthony superb set mate , and welcome to the world of macro, Butterfly is a large white, and the moth is a Cream Coloured Tiger, don't worry we do not get all pin sharp images quite a few hit the trash can.
ReplyDeleteI use a Canon 60 mm macro and to get in really tight when needed a 12 mm extension tube as well. If there is not enough light I use a Marumi Ring Flash, camera on manual and around f8 at 1/200 to 1/250 sec (The Canon flash is to expensive).
Have fun
Great macro images Anthony,i spent the Morning with Monty and it's not easy.
