[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 845264, member: 50197"] My wildflower plot this year is finally starting to attract some insects. The sweat bees are beginning to gather in the late afternoon and sleep over til it starts warming the next morning. Strangely, the half dozen or so only seem to like the dead stem leftover from last year. They were perching on the live ones last year. There were two that were slow fighting over the same spot, but I couldn't seem to get the right angle for a decent shot. [ATTACH type="full"]428537[/ATTACH] This was taken with my 105 micro and stacked 29mm of extension tubes at full close focusing distance. I used my AK diffuser to soften the flash. Too windy today for available light. I like the flash with diffuser for insect photography, but want to do more macro with available light for a different look.
