Proof, if we needed it, of the value of flash with macro to allow f/16.0. Brilliant!

Loving the detail, would really like to know about your DIY diffuser for the ring flash if you were willing to share!

An excellent macro - sideview really helps with limited DoF at high magnification.
Cheers,

Great shot indeed!
Spring is here and I notice blooms and bugs are appearing more and more, so it's time to charge up the ringflash batteries in readiness. I am still trying to convince myself that I don't need the 100mm WR Macro and my Sigma 105mm is just fine..... but it's difficult.
