Hi
Fantastic macro with perfect sharpnes and DOF. I think that the composition would be better with the fly on upper part (90 rotation):-)

Hey Alexei,
What an original title for an original picture !!!
Well i love this picture. It's sharpness and DOF are perfect. The wole body of the insect is sharp.
It seems that the ring flashlight is perfectly adapted to this kind of picture. My only regret is that the light is a bit "flat".
TFS.

Muy buena macro Alexei, con bellos detalles captados, gracias a la agudeza y foco logrados.
Agradable POV y encuadre que realza tanto al diente de león como a la mosca de las flores con la iluminación maravillosa que genera el macro ring.
Excelente... de verdad.
Saludos... Ricardo
Very good macro Alexei, with beautiful captured details, due to the sharpness and achieved focus.
Pleasant POV and framing that it enhances so much to the dandelion like the hoverfly with the wonderful illumination that generates the macro ring.
Excellent... indeed.

Hi Alexei,
this is a great macro shot with very good sharpness and details. The DOF is also very good, not easy in this close.
Most of all I like your handle with the flash, this do not look like a flash shot, the light is very good.
Great work. my friend.

Hi Alexei
The results of your work with this new equipment are more and more impressive! This is really a fantastic combination: your camera + the very good macro lens + the teleconverter and the ringflash. I'm raelly going to consider these alament whem i'm going to purchase mine :)
Anyway, the picture is very impressive, the level of magnification is amazing and the sharpness of the details magnificent.
Lovely colors (both variation are just as nice) and great idea to show the Taraxacum seeds so close :)
Very well done!
Bravo and TFS

Hello Alexei,
This is an incredible macro! I like your title as this flower really looks like being made with optic fibers :) The details you caught are perfect in a very good POV and composition. All those colors fit together and this insect looks like being made of gold. This is wonderful; congratulations!
Claudine

Wow! what a sharpness and accuracy! Excellent job which shows interesting characteristics of this hoverfly.
I agree with your critics on TN about laziness of brain, but I think points interesting when you have to treat with a language you don't know well and have not as much time as you would need to comment all the works you think worth of it. I think that everyone welcome and is grateful for a little smile from a friend.
My very best wishes.

Hello Alexei,
Once again, you impressed me with that so nice picture of a hoverfly over a dandelion flower! Your title cannot be more acurate: it is true that the flower is like a fiber optical...! Sharpness is great and I prefer this photo than the one you are presenting on the workshop. I like the fact that we can see the little eyes between the 2 large one! Is it a female because the 2 large eyes don't stick together? Is is like that for all the syrphidae flies? Great details, excellent composition and great macro! Very well done! TFS,
Michel

Bonjour Alexie
C'est une très belle prise de vue en macro d'un spécialiste que cette jolie Guêpe sur sa fleur.C'est vrai que l'on croirait voir des fibres optiques.
Tres belle composition les couleurs sont superbes très beau détails beau cadrage
Bravo et bon week end.....JP
Hi Alexi, very nice shot. The details are excellent and i like the composition. Not often I've seen a hoverfly sitting on dandelion seeds. The hoverfly is Eristalis sp. probably E. tenax. Nice shot, well done.

Thanks for sharing the image and take care.

Immaculate sharpness and details and the natural colour gives it a silvery shine whereas the warm lighting gives a goldish touch. Very beautiful and majestic pose captured. So much to learn everyday.
