My first few stacks

Post by Ulrik Tønnesen »

I'm quite new to the whole extreme macro, so my photos are far and wide in between. I have yet to find an efficent way of producing worthwhile shots.

Well, it's working!
The weevil(?) looks quite sci-fi.

I can't remember its name (let's call it Bob for now), but you're right about it being a weevil.

My first stacks were worse that the pics you shared, which are improvable, but certainly "worthwhile". Self-criticism and self-demandingness is something positive, but I think you're being too hard on yourself :wink:

Nice pics, Bob is my favorite :lol:

Best,

Velkommen Ulrik

The dramatic picture of the weevil is also my favourite.
But the beetle could be nice also with a tighter cropping.
And the blue butterfy wing would be very nice if it got just a it bit more light and contrast.

Every picture you learn from is worthwile.
