  1. Excellent shot of a stunning species, nicely done! Posted one year ago
    1. Thanks. Ferdy. I don't remember did I mentioned it before, but recently I started to use a flash when shooting macro. I have never used a flash before, so I am still practicing to acquire skills. I even designed and made myself a diffuser, which turned out to be quite successful. Posted one year ago
