Bug Eyes Inside a Sunflower

inside a sunflower The great thing about macro lenses is they open your eyes to a whole new world.
I shot this little critter during my visit to a giant sunflower farm in Northern Virginia.

To see more of my sunflower farm visit please stay tuned to ISBAA later this week.

Thanks for dropping by and have a great day.

    What macro lens do you have Rob? I’m loving shooting Macro although I haven’t gotten quite into the bug thing yet albiet one image. I really love this one!

      Laura I use a NIkor 60mm macro 2.8, it is a great lens, very sharp, but if I had it to do over again, I would have purchased the 105 as it gives you a little more flexibility and with the longer focal length you do not have to get right over your subject as much, which one are you using?

        Hi Rob…I’m using the 105. I really love it a lot. It’s sharp as well. Thanks for responding. I’ve heard good things about your lens as well.

    We’re considering a Macro for next purchase. Which size did you use for this fantastic shot? ~SueBee

      Thanks you all.
