A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!! wow!!! nice pics! By the way, what camera did you use? congratulations for the pics!

 

[tarcan]

thank you for the nice comments!

Tityus, you have a picture of my old set up on page 3, but essentially, I use the Canon 50D, I alternate between 4 macro lenses, the EF-S 60mm (very rarely, but some older shots were made it it), the EF 100mm L, the Sigma 150mm and the MP-E 65mm, also, since last summer, I use the Canon twinflash.

Take care

all right, the season has started... finally

anyhow, barely I should say, it was freezing cold today and there was snow... but nothing would stop Alain and I to go take some shots.

got this shot of a fly walking on the snow... took me about 15 minutes to get this decent shot, after that I gave up as I had my knees in the snow and I could not feel them anymore!

and a second one of that same fly

a nice little spider

and got a shoot a few ants, which is rare, the temps kept them decently slow!

Anyhow, nothing outstanding, but I was just happy to be back on the field!

Glad the season has begun for you. I am looking forward to your terrific photos.

[tarcan]

thank you David, here are a few more recent ones, there were a decent number of small arachnids

and Alain found a giant millepede, I had no clue we had these up here, quite impressive!

more to come when I get the chance
