    Very nice, Knight! While perhaps not as convenient as the screw-in close-up lens that you've used in the past, the image quality is much better.

    Cold nights just mean that the bugs are more sluggish and easier to photograph in the morning
    Please do not edit or repost my images.

    See my website HERE.


    What's a Loupe for anyway?

    Very nice bee. I love doing bees they always are a challenge. You and the tubes seem to be a good fit.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Theres quite a bit of work involved with tubes , havent used a tripod with them yet but i have a feeling that my images would be sharper using one . Auto focus does not seem to work every time so i am mostly using manuel focus wich is totaly new for me .
