OK folks I know there are some excellent Macro people on this board. After a bad week at work I got home and my wife told me there were alot of bees, wasps, flies and so forth on one of her flowering bushes. The wind was really blowing but what the heck, I havent really had a chance to try out the macro flash I recently bought so I'll give it a try. I shot some, and then this morning went out in between rain drops and shot some more. I'll trade one for one comments this weekend for critiques on any of these shot. I'll try to catch up if the commenters get ahead of me. Thanks in advance.

I think those are pretty good ... the details on the bees are amazing ... not a chance I'd get that close to them for a photo opportunity! Off to leave some comments on specific shots ...

Thanks Pamelasue and KarenNfld for the comments. I've added a few more that I was able to process. Anyone else care to make some comments?

Thanks for looking.

Matt did you use a flash for these? They are so sharp and clear.

Duh, should have read your comments better. What type of macro flash do you have, it might be something I would be interested in.

Yes I have a new(used) ringflash that I bought. Its so amazing to use I dont know how I ever did macro's with natural light before. I'll never shoot without it again. Unless I have to of course.
