More nice photos! What camera are you using?

hmmm temp is pretty stable between 28-30 and humidity 70-80 so i may get a molt soon then. The camera is a canon EOS 350D with a sigman 105mm macro lens and canon speedlite 430EX flash was used. Am looking it upgrade the camera to a canon 5D mkII soon which will mean HD video recording

here is one that is as much as i can get out of my camera detail wise with that set up, mantid food, yum.

Are you using a tripod? Cause that must be a bugger getting that close and moving just a hair and the focus is off.

 

[phreeze]

oddly only using a tripod for the flash. steady hands and quick fingers + shoot lots and pick the best ones

 

[yeatzee]

Ha thats always the best method.....shoot a bunch and throw away 90% of em.
