Slim pickings tonight. Mostly because I had a wicked migraine because of the weather here.
Anyway...a very small white flower:



Another image, 1:1

Can't remember the type of flower this is. But here are the stamens.

Moments after this was taken, I flicked the little guy off my bean plant!

It's a Day Lily. I put a couple up of the same plant.

Oh yeah! That's right. I knew it was a type of lily, but I couldn't remember the first part. I thought I recognized similar photos you posted.

Thanks.

Played with Focus stacking a bit. 8 images full frame just like what you see, but stacked using Zerene Stacker to get more DOF.

Don't blame me. She's a low res spider. Really.

Taken a few days later, poor thing sitting in the rain.

Terrible photo, butt funny angle.

Just can't hand hold 64mm of extension while in what ever strange position I have to get into to photograph the bugs.



You did really well, it is very difficult using lens+extension tubes, my hands shake too much !

Manual focus+3.5 inches from end of lens+fast moving bee= very few frames in focus. LOL

Went to the Houston Museum of Natural Science today. They have huge butterfly exhibit. My flash set up kind of failed me today. The problem is I my bracket is several pieces and moves around to much. I was having to adjust the light a lot because it is set to put light at 1:1 but most of my shots were not that close. Damn butterflies are hard to sneak up on. I am either going to make a bracket from one solid piece or make this ring flash with some modifications DIY Ring Flash.

All photos taken handheld with my flash attached to the camera hot shoe.
