Mating Soldiers

Canon 10D, Sigma 105mm macro, 1/100s, f13, iso 200.

With my main body needing repaired I dug out the old reserve and had a go at some macro, which is very different from avian and equally challenging. It's surprising what you can find when you look around your garden - hadn't noticed these before!

Awesome detail and sharpness - a nice departure from your usual work. I just wish the OOF white blob weren't there

Ian:
Good macro work! Just the right DOF to get the critters in focus. Yes, it amazing how much is happening in the garden.

Ian,
It's nice to see you in Macro Gallery too. I really like the two critters perfectly sharp. Great background too. :wavey:
