Second series: Lady beetle larva (image #3) molts to a chrysalis (image #1). Image #4 looks like a larva sniffing about another chrysalis.

All have tack sharpness and excellent DoF.

They were all shot at F22 had to modify my diffuser for the tubes worked pretty well wish the wind would not have been blowing so hard.

Does very well for its age. Does not have any bells or whistle. It took a while to get used to it, but I have not found a reason yet to upgrade.
