the bees and such - more shots
the bee appears out of nowhere, buzzing about the flowers, wiggles around, gets what it wants, then buzzes away to another flower.... he's prepared in a sense, instead of with the micro, he uses a 70mm zoom, just nice distance and detailed enough to catch the action. finally got a couple of decent shots..... still feels that it's not easy. a more powderful zoom would be better.
the iCones
the morning walk-about in neighborhood garden is good exercise for the legs and for the eyes, and the hands. yes, i have shaky hands..... but the trick i think to get sharp pictures is to have QUICK hand-eye co-ordination. the moment the view finder presents a focused picture, the hand must act - release the shutter..... it shakes but what's important is your shutter speed(1/180) should take care of the shake, but with a very thin DOF, you better be quick.... DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU GET THE PERFECT STABLE, FOCUSED VIEW.
the metallic fly - looks fierce head-on....
has caught this bee/fly/moth insect a few times on camera..... still could not figure out what it is.
snail - not one but three. climbing on the fence with blue berry shrubs.
BLUE BERRY? yap..... looks like them, berries, ok.
ants again - this time on ixora flower buds chewing up the tender pulp. but no aphids around..... where are these ant-farmers?
here they are! but where are the ants?
