Mating

Jasenka

Hi all

I love macro shots, and soon I plan to acquire MP-E 65 f/2,8 :wink. Untill then I use Canon 100 mm macro.

While shooting macro, I'm happy as a newborn baby when I catch the bugs mating. All macro work is done with Canon 350D and Canon 100 mm macro. Here are couple of those shots:

How lucky are you to actually see these things to get shots? They look great. Well done.

Well considering the time i spend on my knees in the meadow, I see them quite a lot. The problem is getting catching them before they take off

Thank you Kathie, glad you like them

And here is another one, you can just see from the shape formed by their bodies (upside-down heart) that they are in love

Great colours. I see them not far from where I live but they don't let me get very close.

Excellent series of couples- lovely light !
