A few from Sunday night

[Paul Iddon]

Good to see a few arrivals around the garden area - I've seen few (not been looking that much to be fair) but the nicer weather and warmer nights are bringing the guests out...

A mayfly (imago stage)...

Supper for a Neriene montana spider and 2 others (one is looking gravid)...

And finally wrapping up a snack is a small Platnickina tincta (commonly called the False Pirate Spider because, a bit like Ero sp. (Pirate Spiders), it hangs out on the webs of other small spiders and steals their prey or even kills them).

An accomplished selection of macro images. 4 and 5 are my personal favourites. That Kaowa 60mm is tempting me...

It's a cracking lens - but needs practice being full manual. Need to be used with the adaptor.

Can the lens do anything that the RF100mm Macro cannot?
What's the advantage?

 

[Paul Iddon]

It's a 2:1 lens so much greater mag, but DoF will be reduced.

For the price it's a no brainer if you manually focus.
