[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 824052, member: 50197"] Trying to get some more macro shooting in before the insects disappear. I've said this before, but I really need to try shooting some more available light macros. This one was somewhat backlit by morning sun. I took a few with the flash and then switched the flash off, cranked up the ISO and opened up the aperture. A little more DOF would have been nice, but I needed to keep the shutter speed up. I really like the quality of light in this one. [ATTACH type="full"]410164[/ATTACH] This is another available light. I had some really nice foliage and flowers in the background that blurred out to just some blotches of color. A lot of that would have been lost with flash. Again, I would have liked to get a little more in focus, but again, that's the price of available light. [ATTACH type="full"]410165[/ATTACH] This one didn't turn out quite as well as I'd hoped, but it does have some interest. I had to use flash here, as it was in deep shadow. I did crank down the shutter speed to get some of the backlighting exposing the shadow created on the leaf. [ATTACH type="full"]410166[/ATTACH] I'm still fascinated by the small tree frogs.
