First Huntsman macro
Aug 11, 2013 02:11:44 #
Shot with D7000 and Tokina 100mm macro lens, ISO 400, 1/250 sec at f/22 using Nikon SB-700 at 1/32 power. I need a lot more practice at focusing on a moving subject.

Looks good, knock the ISO down to 200 or 100 if the noise is bothering you. If you do you'll need to increase flash output 1 or 2 stops to compensate.

Also, consider heavily diffusing speedlight to lessen shadows. Many of us on this forum are using commercial or DIY softboxes of approximately 6x8-inch face size. See bottom of pages #3 & #4 here: http://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-32754-3.html

Thanks Nikonian72. After reviewing your references, I've ordered a hot shoe ball mount to hold the flash with a 6x8 FotoDiox softbox and Kalt bracket. Can't wait to try it.Also, consider heavily diffusing speedlight to lessen shadows. Many of us on this forum are using commercial or DIY softboxes of approximately 6x8-inch face size.

Excellent shot ! I can't believe you were able to get all of those big long legs inside of DOF. That's a very colorful daddy longlegs also; all of ours are a drab dark brownish color.
