Hola George

Que buena imagen de esta fea mosca vista asi. La verdad es que cuendo la vemos cerca no nos gusta, pero hay que ver los coloridos que presentan cuando se utiliza macro.
Pobre hormiga yo creo que tiene más poder, por que la mosca no tiene boca con que morder.

Mucha suerte tuviste en esta imagen. Que por cierto es muy buena.

Un saludo Antonio

Hello George,
Yes, certainly you are setting records with the approach! great job! difficult to understand as you have made precise details (especially ants) taking into account the size of these insects. The timing, by itself, it is worthy of appreciation! I have my reservations about the use of shutter speeds of 1/60s to photograph insects such in cases like this (where two or more insects interacting)... I think that "something could move" ... but I see that this is just an unfounded fear on my part, because the result is fantastic!
TFS, regards, Jesús

Hello George.

A great zctionshot you show us here and you have managed the picture in a way that we can guess of who is taking whom.
Great details.
I think it's a matter of personal taste but it seems to me that you used your flas and i think thak kind of lighting makes the colors a little hard, also makes by the reflections.
But overall a very pleasant picture to look at.

Bonsoir George,

Great closeup. Great sharpness. Rich saturated colors, the accentuated contrast give the image a lot of graphism. Side view help to manage a good sharpness despite the low DOF. Did you obtain such magnification just with the 70mm macro or did you use extender or extension tubes? Do you use focusing rail? TFS.

Hello George,
Although I find the colours a bit over saturated, this is an amazing sharp detailed photo with an original action. I don't know who is the winner. Great DOF, composition and POV. Fascinating photo!

Peter
