Thank you , well as long as it doesn't pay the bills i consider myself to be an amateur.

You have good eyes to discover nature's beauty!

i do have an eye for details indeed :) have a nice weekend

This is awesome, i love the first one, keep posting. What camera did you use?

i used my Sony A6000 , with reversed lens or with the panagor auto macro converter in both situations the lens won't show in the EXIF because they are old manual lenses, and these are made in August 2015 :)

thanks for telling, and again these pix are beautiful.

that is just magical! love it!

"Drone" and "Marmelade" photos are really something!
And please, take this as a double compliment because I really do hate bugs. 🙂

Thank you Ana-Maria , i do know that not everyone is happy with them when they come close , these are just flies and won't sting

so lovely, as usual... kudos!

thank you Fraenk , did you manage to find a manual lens already ? :)

I've been in the garden all day digging a pond yesterday... Haven't really started looking for one yet... I'll take your recommendations and look on ebay over the weekend I think.

digging the pond for fish or do you need to vanish your mother in law .. :D

hahaha... well, as it's actually more puddle-sized, so it's probably too small for either ;)

I just want a place for my bees to come and drink and maybe I can attract some dragonflies to stick around for a having their portraits taken ;)

good thought , they need to drink ,

Amazing Photos!What was the camera setup for the first and third photo? A really good photos! Congrats.!

those are made with the use of reverse lens the 1st one is made with sony a6000 + Sigma 105mm DG Macro
the 3rd one is made with my old sony a700 + reversed lens probably the sal18-55mm

That's pretty. I'd be a little nervous getting that close to the bee. Good job.
