The things we do for blip! It looks great though.

~ jude14   this is brilliant!! amazing detail

~ audrey   awesome detail.

~ acircledoesnot   Incredible detail in this!

But keeping insects on a pin stuck in to Blutack, well that's cause for concern I think!! On a level with McDawg wandering through graveyards!

Mind you, I have done some daft things for Blip too , but I'm not telling anyone!

~ cagedbird   Poor little bee!...it's a very good macro of it....u operated like for a postmortem examination!:)

~ Poppins   Great details, with you on collecting all kinds of blip stuff, got a box of bits and bobs myself, no dead critters though.

Just noticed your f stop, 36, any particular reason for using so high?

~ Jaxter46   Thanks for linking, of course it's okay!

Before reading about your blip today I was wondering how in the world you had managed to get this shot :) Well done, it does look like he's flying!

~ mly   @Jaxter - I useed the aperture priority setting to make sure that the whole bee was in focus. I think the camera naturally chooses the highest shutter speed and largest aperture ... or something like that and with a larger aperture the DOF is narrower and with macros in the past I've been caught out with bits of the image not being in focus. I didn't intend it to be as high as f36 - didn't know it went that high :-) That make sense?

~ 42   Amazing details , perfect shot 5/5

~ stuff   Fab!

~ MissU2   Fab, i really thought you had caught this in flight from the thumbnail


~ dragon   Super detail!!

~ bugsman   @cagedbird - some people keep dead insects on sticks for a hobby!

~ 42   Yep - we are all crazy - but this is great - thought you had caught it in flight!

~ KathGordon   poor dead thing - why do I feel so sorry for a dead bee? Most other dead insects, I wouldn't care less!

~ archangel   Haha! well done! Does the bee have a head?

f/36, wow! I wonder if my lens goes that high/low?

~ Chaos   Super detail and shot 42, I still have the dead dragonfly in a draw I blip from time to time.

~ Lynn   Poor little bee, but at least he was dead and you didnt kill him, like the dead butterflies I got from the Butterfly Park, nice close up.

~ traceyflowerpot   incredible beasts

~ Croz   I once kept a dead fly on a shelf so I could blip it the next day! Great shot.

~ buzzcocksfan   Well worth the blue tack, card etc etc ! Great shot!

~ Poppy   great close up. as long as thats the only dead thing pinned up in the basement!!!

~ McDawg   Wow - great shot!
