The spider was dragging that fly around for 20 or 30 mins that I saw, backways or sideways.
I suppose it couldn't go forwards as it had the fly in its gob.

Fantastic set.
As said already #7 jumps out, but the rest are super too.
Great sky in #1,

Hi All, after a very busy week, i got out today, for around 45 mins to try and find something to shoot, these are what i found in the neighbors garden.
I never knew that wasps eyes had facets, flies I knew, wasps I didn't.
I don't know what kind of spider that is, but it's tiny, not much more than a match head.
I think the plant the wasp is on is a magnolia, not sure though.

Interesting shot, it's really bang on.
I'd love to know how you got it to billow out like that,
It's one very cool shot.

That difuser is working well for you, and you seem to have gotten the hang of the new lens.

Comment by derek897 posted on New 100mm macro + DIY flash diffuser at 31/03/2017 - 15:04
The setup I use currently is a sigma 105mm macro lens, paired with extension tubes, this last lot were with all 3 tubes, and a cheap viltrox 670 ring flash.
I tend to shoot anywhere from wide open to f10 or so.
I have a raynox dcr 250 and a 505 but can't use them and the ring flash.
I might give it a go without the flash and use a tripod instead and see what the results are like.
When using the tubes it's mf, which is probably better for macro anyway.
Hope this helps wozfromcov.
Any questions feel free to ask.
Loads of helpful advice from peeps on here.
