    Beautiful insect as well as beautiful photo of it, Gerry. Was it hand held? And what sort of ex. tubes did you use? Once January is over you feel that there’s a light at the end of the winter tunnel. James

      Thanks James, yes hand held. They were only cheap ones off Ebay made by FOTGA., a 10mm and 16mm and both together 26mm. They have the electrical connections, so AF works.

    Excellent stuff Gerry.
    I got them very same Ex tubes in my xmas stocking. And have got the 100-300, so looking forward to Spring/Summer.
    Sayin that, i can always have a dabble at some snowflake macros ect, in the meantime. If we actually get any proper snow that is.
