Description
*This is the most difficult macro shot i have ever taken due to the bug's small size, high speed and unpredictable movements!Please forgive me if I can't reply to all your messages but I'd like to thank you all in advance who have added my images to their favorites, my pages to their watch and for all your wonderful compliments. It's a big encouragement, it means so much for me and I truly appreciate it
special thanks to aksdareflection for suggesting it and ^dandelgrosso for featuring it as my first DD

Ahhh I've always wanted to see a still shot of this insect. I could never catch them though. I can't imagine touching one much less getting a picture of one.
Amazing job!

*squeak* Hoverfly! And yes, they ARE quick and unpredictable, and capturing this shot was some feat indeed. A DD well earned.

i use a 450D Canon and the lens i used for this shot was the 60mm Macro Canon.. but i prefer the 100mm Macro Canon while shooting bugs, and i own that too

cool, I love Macro Photography I use a Sony which is great but needs more zoom, but other than that iss a good beginner's camera since I'm learning to become a better photographer.

great shot. I suppose you manually focus the shot...? Using such a low f number it's easy to mess up the focus, but you managed to get bug sharply. Well done mate
