I also like both versions. The added processing brings the details out. You can see that it is processed quite a bit but the added detail is interesting. I also see that you used f/10 which brings the best out of the EF100mm macro lens (peak performance is in fact f/11).
I'm very interested in which lens set-up and what type of flash you used though (twin flash?). I know that the image details say 100mm 2.8 macro. BUT... the uncropped image shows that your lens is able to fill the frame with approx 3/8" of focused subject (roughly 1/8" bug plus space). With the 100mm macro lens I can only manage 1". With an added 68mm of extension tubes (the entire Kenko kit), the frame can focus on 3/8". I assume this is what you did but I'm not not sure.
I like "extreme" macro photography a lot and see from your portfolio that you are one of the masters on the site. So I am very curious how you do it and what you used in addition to the 100mm. Maybe a "How'd They do That" on the matter would have been interesting for a few of the members - at least for me! :)
In any case; an excellent job! Message edited by author 2008-12-08 14:05:38. |
