My entry in #mydailypost by @leyargoz -@sol25 - @lourdeshd6. Today is Wednesday Macro

I took this recently while seeing how using an Extension tube with my sony 24 to 240lens would work for Macro, till I can afford to buy a macro lens,, its a bit fiddly to get the focus right but kind of happy with how this one came out

Stay Cool and Steem on

This photo taken by me using a Sony A6500 mirrorless camera with my 24-240 Sony Lens and using an extension tube at 89mm F5.6 and 1/60

Great shot!

Great picture man! Welcome to #thealliance! Look forward to seeing more fabulous photos :) I got stung by one of those in the ear one time when I was three. I was popping the eye out of the minnows in the minnow bucket because they had these cool little lenses I thought were little marbles and I guess nature said that's enough of that and hit me. LOL

Thanks Mate I got stung by a bee on the chin when I was 6 that's when me and my fanily found I was allergic to bee stings

Fortunately I thing I grew out of the allergy got stung a couple of years ago and it didn't swell up to much

Yeouch. Good thing you outgrew the allergy!

Ohh yes they got me a few times but luckily only once on my face, was so glad when nothing much happened last time :)

awesome shot. seem like the subject is floating on air :)

Yeah I love how that worked out, have to play with the tubes some more :)

So fluffly!!

Isn't it just well except the stinger lol

Wonderful macro shot! thanks for posting:)

Glad to be part of the challenge :)

Nice work, a good macro lens can set you back quite a bit. I think this gets the job done nicely and it doesn't break the bank.

Yeah for sure there not cheap this will do me for a while :)

This is an awesome Macro shot, I am borrowing this one for my page 😉

Thanks very nice of you

Beautiful shot!

Thanks kindly

Thanks kindly

@tattoodjay Great photo...very beautiful post

Thanks Mate

That is so beautiful. It looks like the bumble posed for you.

Thanks it was so good for me moved right to this spot and stopped I was so happy :)

Beautiful macro shot

Thanks :)

Nice one. Is that lavender flowers the bee is on?

Thanks and yes that is lavender:)

I always like the photos with lovely and busy bees 🐝. Excellent shot my friend.

Thanks Margaret mecti and was so glad when it moved so it was head in to me

It looks good. I Like the detail on the bee :)

Thanks kindly

Yikes. He is looking right at us! That's an unusual angle and it is very effective!

I was so happy when he turned to this position :)

You need a lot of patience with bugs and things. I have not yet managed to capture a hummingbird, as they are so darned quick. You need to be sitting by the flowers all day waiting for them.

Yeah I spent about an hour once tring to get a good shot of a hummingbird and failed miserably LOL

I have a friend in Scotland who photographs birds. She has a bird hide in her back yard and sits in it for hours!

Yeah to be a birder you sure need patience

More than I have, that's for sure!

Wonderful macro picture of the bee. Amazing how a macro picture can bring out all the features of the eyes, legs, wings and body. It gives one an appreciation for nature. You did an excellent job. :D

Thanks and that's what I love also about Maro shots

Great macro!

Thanks kindly

preciosa captura

Thanks

Its wonderful

Incredible macro, Jj. The bee is fabulous, but, it is all about that beautiful bokeh that is framing the shot. Awesomeness!

Thanks was fun playing around with the extension tubes tricky to get the focus spot on but this shot proves to me there well worth spending more time playing with :)

Yes!

So delightful - mmm big smile for this one
