Some nature macro shots from this past week. The top image is a mum which was shot 1:1 with a Nikon D100, ISO 200, F16@1/125, 55mm Nikkor Micro with extension ring, and an SB 800 speedlight on TTL. The second image is of mum pedals shot with the same camera, lens, and ISo, but lit with window light and shot at F2.8@1/60 for aesthetic purposes. The bottom image is a mushroom (sorry don't know what type) shot while I was on a hike. The mushroom was hiding under a fallen tree and lit by the late evening sun. I laid on my belly with my Nikon 65, 55mm Nikkor with extension ring, Fuji Provia 100 and shot this at F8@1/30 handheld.
A little nature macro. These were shot over the weekend while walking around my sister's yard. Both were shot using ambient light with a D200, 55mm 2.8 Micro, PK-13 extension ring which makes them 1:1. The spider was shot using ISO 100, F16@1/30, and a tripod. He was completely scared and just froze making for a great subject. The slug was shot using ISO 100, F11@1/60, and handheld.
