In the garden (ten images)
My favourite? The Fly.
All those webs and it's still chillin....
very good images Kris, very good. No. 8 is the not needed IMO as No. 9 nails it much better.
Best regards
Regards
Nice set Kris! I have been out taking shots of cobwebs this morning too but not sure if they'll turn out well... I really like the webs in shots 2 and 3 here, especially the way the web is constructed with some little triangles at the junctions of the web silk. And I particularly like leaf and pondweed, think that it my favourite of the bunch! you must have had the camera perfectly perpendicular at f2 to get that all in sharp focus. Nice one!

Thank you. By the way, the lens is an f/2 lens, I think it was at about f/5.6. I was a bit worried about dropping the lot in the pond! This lens is my original from 1982. I didn't use it for years as I got a f/1.7 version and someone poured beer on it and made it sticky. Recently I decided to treat it to a CLA from Alan and now it is working wonderfully once more.

Many thanks. No 9 was my favourite too, probably of the whole set. K.

And what a fantastic lens!
