What a lovely photo - wonder what chive honey tastes like. :)
Andy, as a keen amature photographer I can honestly say I'm looking at a good photo. Steady hand is apparent. Nice one.
Thanks Ken
Steady hand is helped by the mode 2 camera shake facility!!!
I took 2, the other is better.
Wondering if to send it to the countryfile calender photo competition which is "all creatures great and small" this year (no pets)
Have another I would like to send,can send 4.
But of course there is strong competition.....
That was on a macro setting
Panasonic DMC-FZ7 bought at tesco just before our wedding last year.
Great photo Andy :) Definitely worth entering in the Countryfile competition.
nice shot :)
I'm guessing the lens was a 90 or 100mm. The depth of field is what makes it interesting and I see you have the focus set to centre, a slightly wider focus might have taken in more leaf detail, but the object is the bee so that's not a bad point. If this was taken without a tripod then I take my hat off to you, if you had the set-up in 'auto' it must have been a very sunny day for your camera's shutter to work fast enough. Again, well done. Get the pic publicised....and copyrighted!
A very good pic, it reminds me of one i have taken. Give me a mo and i will stick it up :)
This belongs in the 'Gallery'...not in 'Fun Pic's.'
Lovely! I was wondering what chive honey would taste like too MaryMary ;D
Ken
It is a 12x optical zoon (48x digital)
35mm equiv.
36-432
I didn`t use the tripod for the bee shots but did for the ladybird but it was a failure...
No tripod? Then that makes it even more special. Good one.
