Amazing macro shot! The closest part of the head seems to be a little bit out of focus though but everything else is amazing! Well done, nice composition!

A few exposure problems I think, few over exposed areas, but overall looks underexposed. FOcus isnt as crisp as it could be, but still a good macro shot!

good macro
i think peoples are a bit overreacting thought... dont want to be the black sheep
but the focus is off and the head isnt really clear
for me the shot got potencial but partially failed due to focus problems

Lovely shot despite the focusing. The eyes should have been more in focus.
I'm always a bit envious of extreme macros because I haven't managed to capture one yet. What lens did you use for this?

thanks again for the comments people.
kierjuno: I used only the S2 IS camera super macro mode.
I'm glad you like it

Great macro, very nice details, even better knowing that you only used the S2 IS super macro mode.

Keep shooting.

Glad to see another person besides Zanzibar using the S2 IS. I like the camera a lot!
The super macro mode is taken very close to the subject and you did well using it. Too bad the focus was not perfect on the eyes but it is a difficult shot to get perfect. Did you use manual or autofocus?

Overall a good macro.

thanks a lot for the comments and vots.
thanks for the kind words to you all.
Gary, I used the AF because was a really hot day and the bees were so restless and I wouldn't had the time to use MF. I think it would have been better with MF, but... that's it .....
Zanzibar it's the king of the macros I think.

Good god, that sure is a close call!
Macros like these are always impressive, no matter how alike they look. I can see you had extra care with this particular one, the focus is very sharp and accurate, altough I can almost surely say that you cropped it a little.

You did a manual post-processing sharpening process, right? I can see it in the head of the "monster", but I don't think it turned out well. The image itself already contains a bit of noise, and the strange vignetting in the middle of the little guys's head doesn't help much either. But of course I can always be wrong ;)

Overall, I'm impressed. Keep making that odd microworld into a macroworld so the rest of the world can see it properly. Thumbs up!

Watch your fingers! :)
Very detailed and impressive macro. It's a little soft in places and a tad over-exposed, but impressive nontheless.
