Wandering around the back garden with my new macro lens attached to my Nikon D800, I came across this little fella resting patiently on a daisy flower.
I crouched down, took a few shots and they turned out ok, however, I still have a lot to learn about macrophotography.

For the sharpest results use a tripod. Though this is not always practical.
If you shoot in RAW then further sharpening can be done in post-processing.
Great lens for macro photography.

Hey, thanks @dijetechili that's really cool to know. I'll name him daruet if I see him on the flower again LOL. I agree, we must always keep learning. That's why enjoy photography so much ... because I still have so much to learn :-)

This grasshopper (belalang/daruet) is one of the few insects we were looking for when we were child. but I can't remember now why we hunted them.

What a beauty!! Steady hands are the key, any little movement can result in a huge difference in the image quality. Awesome photography nonetheless.
