  • To bad I can't spell entomology! http://blog.trafficshaper.comhttp://www.vimeo.com/boborama/videoshttp://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=bob0ramahttp://public.fotki.com/boborama/
  • Hi, Edit: my local entamologist ID's this as Tolype velleda I have been working again on some stained glass projects and wanted to host my own huge images, setting on IIP and iipmooviewer which is...
  • Given you are in the UK, I'm betting this is an oak leaf infected with the gall inducing wasp N. quercusbaccarum.  Each larval wasp forms its own gall, and the galls mature and will eventually pop...
  • Very beautiful macros! Here is my humble addition....   These are some sort of moth egg on clematis leaf...   I had some issues getting clean shots of them.   They are very slick / shiny, and I had...
  • Replied in A bug you.

  • Marshall and AMB Barry,

    Neither of you have bothered to post an avatar, so you deprive me of the opportunity to look into your soul.

    I believe you missed the point entirely, and if you were more...

  • Commented on Sigma USB Dock quick review article

    All they need to do is put a sensor in it ( and a KAF mount on the front ) and you have a product I'd buy. I would love for someone to create an easily integrated imaging system - free of legacy...

  • In terms of C&C, I think this is an example of the "soft bigotry of low expectations." Its interesting to see Forrest's creative process in...

  • That is a fascinating observation!  I'm going to mention it to our ornithology staff. The hand the fills the feeder is the hand that rules the world.
  • Already been done.   For example the broad category of 80-200mm zoom lenses ( e.g. Sears models by Samyang ) where you twist the "Macro" barrel and its in "Macro" mode.    --...
  • Replied in Smoky Yosemite
    Love #7 - The rest... seem overexposed in a way that doesn't really maximize the benefit of the terrific location. --...
  • Do you have a hood for the 135/2.5?  It may help with the contrast for the outdoor stuff - though wide open, its going to be a bit mushy.
  • Please tweet this so I can RT... its hilarious. Perhaps they are significantly more environmentally friendly than I previously thought. --...
  • Replied in Moody moth .
    That's a great moth.   And I got to explain to my daughter how to sex a moth.   Its a win-win.
  • Yes, given that the view and field cameras used this as their exclusive means to focus until someone put all those clever helicoids on their lenses. The new security cameras we use include a sensor...
  • I chronically abuse my K-5 for the time lapse stuff.   It just works.   My concern would be with long term storage in highly variable environments such as your car. You would do well to use...
  • The moth is a great find, very nice.   ( The only down side is the 400 ISO.   A bit of the fine detail of the scales would have been preserved. )   --...
  • Created discussions Backyard Macros
    This morning I had a couple hours to "explore" my back yard...   Mostly got some bug mug shots.   No PP.   Shot with Elicar 90mm + integrated ring flash.   I'm normally allergic to flash...
  • Obligatory cat photos aside ;-) I like the macros of the bugs, that iridescent black bird is really nice, the green flies are great. --...
