Description

Same bee as in Slurp V. just with a little better framing. I used Topaz DeNoise to remove image noise and Topaz Detail to sharpen it. I've already registered Detail and I'm gonna register DeNoise right after I post this shot...

I baited this bee with honey (pasteurized) by injecting it into a Rosemary flower with a hypodermic needle and syringe. Once she started feeding I grabbed onto the Rosemary branch with my left hand, rested the lens on that same hand, and took the shot.

Tech specs: Canon 40D (F14, 1/250, ISO 100) + a Canon MPE-65mm (@3x) + a diffused MT-24EX (-1 FEC).

woohoo! now this is a GREAT shot! *so jellus I'm cross eyes* :rofl:

shame it's not possible to see the picture larger, cause when you click it's WAY back. But please don't change it, cause the detail we can see when it goes THAT large is amAzing! :#1:
