Well, why not Pekka, this is a fine tele-macro capture from a good dorsal POV placing the whole animal plane perpendicular to your lenses axis, thus capturing a sharp enough image. Good first try indeed!

Hello Peeka,

There are very fine colors in your photo. You have used well the light rendering well the blue spots of the insect. The DOF you have chosen is very good keeping the whole insect in focus.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian

Hello Pekka,

This is unusual for you!
I also shot a dragonfly, for the first time, this week which I post later on!

I think you have done a splendid job! The insect is sharply focussed and the details are all there to be enjoyed. Maybe we can see some more insects from you!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Pekka,
I was looking forweard to this, and for good reason!
I would never have thought someone could take a macro with an 800mm lens... but I was wrong! :-))
Very good composition.
Excellent DOF.
Nice natural colours.

Inspirational work!

Cheers,
Joe
