Re: Few from the back yard...
My first attempt at using CS4 (from Element 6) and I see that the EXIF was stripped when I saved as JPG. The Save As command doesn't give a JPG option, so I use the Save for Web with metadata set to All. How do I save JPGs with EXIF intact? - TF

Re: Few from the back yard...
Eric - Thanks.
AgingEyes - Thanks. 1/20 sec @ f/4 incase you want to try yourself
As for my EXIF problem, I figured it out. I just needed to convert the file to 8-bit and then JPG is an option in Save As.

Re: Few from the back yard...
what lense/tube? did you shoot that bee with? is it a crop at all?
im trying to imagine how much closer/ larger the subject will be if i use some tubes on my 70-200 as opposed to my 60mm macro.

Sorry about the stripped EXIF. The lens was a 100mm and I don't think I used any tubes. It is a good sized bee. Here is the uncropped version. - TF

Thanks for the Featured Photo! (Though I missed with the thanks until it's gone.) With all the great shots here, it's real honor. - TF

Re: Few from the back yard...
Wow!
I particularly like the Bee and Dragonfly!
The second from the top is also nice - in an artistic miss / blur kind or way
