Macro Shoot Outing
Date:Â 17 January 2010
Venue:Â Taman Rimba Kiara, TTDI
Time: Meeting time 7.30am. Went for breakfast then adjourned to the park. Full swing was around 8.30am if I’m not mistaken. And round up around 12noon.
Lens use:Â Tamron SP90
Organizer:Â Photokaki.com/forum
Other than this first photo, the rest of it was taken with Tamron SP90. Forummers of Photokaki.com
Troops fixing up their gears getting ready for the shoot.
Custom made special flash extender. Guess what is Andrew snooping about?
Nah, this praying mantis.
Damselfly
Macro was best to shoot at ratio 1:1. But I notice (for my case) for example this caterpillar. With 1:1, I can’t get the full body shot. So half it is.
An eye opener for me. Taking bugs shot is very different from big object. We or rather they really look under every the leaves, in the deep bushes, examine every tree trunk, staring at the still water and many more. But the effort really paid off once you look at the picture. No regrets.
Final picture from the outing something that is not a bug. I wonder what species is this? Looks like nicotine earth worm. LOL
