Hi

I have seen amazing closeup photos of insects (like jump spiders, etc.). What are the technique in keeping live subjects from moving around?

Thanks

sometimes it really helps if you have a longer macro lens and give them some breathing room. i have an old Sigma 150mm macro lens that helps me a lot when i shoot macro. its just that longer lens doesn't spook the critter and that helps a lot.
