Feeding time

Macro practice - victim on my Buddleia !

PS. Taking great care this time. My last post I accidentally uploaded an image taken by my compact (Sony). Apologies to those who were kind enough to comment and thanks to Dave who spotted my error. I withdrew the image of course.

Focus is spot on - bang on its eye. You can raise the ISO at least to 800 or even 1600 which will allow you to stop it down considerably. The shallow DoF results from f2.8. I normally use f7.1 -8 for butterflies.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
