22-Pistepirkko
Out chasing that Finnish rock band in the wet grass. Try saying Psyllobora vigintiduopunctata a few times. We call this tiny (3 to 5mm long), ladybug Tjugotvåprickig nyckelpiga.
Three extension tubes and the nifty fifty in this case. I usually shoot a couple of photos with manual focus, and if I'm lucky I can then use the script function in PS and combine a few photos for better depth of field.
I'm not even going to try saying it once Steffe :) I have to confess I've not seen a yellow ladybug, only the common old red :)
ReplyDeleteLove ladybugs. I don't care what color. Love it when they flutter away. Yellow on green. Pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteWe do not see many of the yellow ones...
ReplyDeleteThey're so darn cute.
ReplyDeleteYou really got this one, Steffe!
ReplyDeleteA perfect macro.
ReplyDeleteI've only seen the red ones, never ones like this.
ReplyDeleteI will leave the pronunciation to native speakers of Swedish.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant photograph. Just using extension tubes?
