What a great shot! I love catching these little bugs and looking at them up close. Rest assured, I mean them no harm and let them go after a few seconds. Only one problem, it's not a bee, but a fly that minics a bee.

Amazing photo! I've tried to get a picture like this myself, so far none of them have worked that well. They sure love to buzz from flower to flower, never really staying still. Great job!

Goofy-Deluxe In reply to MEMAN [2004-08-06 16:51:01 +0000 UTC]

The Z1 is a nice camera, but after allmost a half year, I suddenly want more functions, higher resolutions, xtra equipment and so on. But is has been a lovely camera so far
Why aren't you satisfied? The Z2 should be a much better camera though!

MEMAN In reply to Goofy-Deluxe [2004-08-06 17:02:34 +0000 UTC]

not really ,it has more megapixels otherwise its the same.. i am having major problems with it. the macro isnt so big either if i set mine to super macro i still wouldnt get such depth as you get..

WOW! Stunning picture, all those details made me wonder if this was a drawing or not! (And if it was, the artist would hafta be a phenomenon...). The fact that u actually managed to capture this in photo is...well, no words for it, this shot is great

really, really fantastic photo....specially the wings, the wings are just unreal...do you plan on making some prints available?

Well I don't think I should sell that many prints, and this might be one of my best shots ever. My other shots aren't that good, and bad prints aren't anything worth

What a breath-taking macro. I love the brilliant colors presented in this, it's quite amazing. The detail is so fine here. I espcially love the insects body and eyes. The eyes look so smooth and unnatural, and the body actually looks like it's a bit flat. The skeleton of the wings is ridiculously crisp, which is amazing. As for the flower,... it came out great...the depth of field is just right because the focus is put on all the insect and just a bit of the pistols. Great job!
