Bees and Other Insects.

:D I like how its wings are a blur.

My grandson pointed this insect out to me, very weird creature indeed. :):

This Insect was in the same area as the Leaf Insect. :wink

I like the colors and capture of #2. The bee stands on it's own while the destination has nice color. #4 is my favorite though, almost abstract :D .

Interesting looking beasts and perspectives. Great colours. Are you using diffused flash on these or straight flash ???

All the best and darn good ratios.

Thanks everyone for your comments, NZmacro, I used the camera's inbuilt flash.

Howdy. Try diffusing the inbuilt flash with a small piece of printing paper over the flash, just held on with a small rubber band. It might help with more even lighting Tim.

All the best over the ditch :thumb

Thanks NZmacro, I will try that next time. Would a piece of Tissue work as well? :D

I used to think Australia was the place for me to spend an extended holiday . . . and then I saw your shot of this bug / creature! Whoa, he looks like some sort of 'badass punk" praying mantis. :uhoh

Cool National Geographic looking pics

J: All nice shots Tim, but that last one absolutely Rocks!

H: Sometimes unusual lighting will win the day.
