So beautiful!! I recently became addicted to macro photography. Would you say this lens is the best for macro? Any recommendations on the best macro lens. I'm saving up.

This is just brilliant, such clarity. Either the lens is that good or you are a genius in stacking and Photoshop`ing.

It is "simple". It is possible only early morning around 5 - 5,30 hrs. Muss be coolly ( 6-10 C) and dew cap. And then na 10 or more rise at dawn, with a bit luck..Lighting

My favorite kind of photography is Macro. It`s another world, which can be seen only under our feet. We can discover a world of small monsters. Each fly, bee and spider is a perfect predator or a warring victim in this empire. It`s always a big surprise for me to find out how many species, forms and colors exist in this kingdom. I see the things around me a bit differently after each visit in this micro-world. I try to look at them in their own way. It`s very funnyEditing
I use Photoshop for better DOF (depth of focus) - that is the biggest problem by macro-photography. While the DOF is very small, I am always trying to make two or more shoots with a different DOF / this picture is from 2 shoots/. I am using stacking and sharpening in Photoshop. Sharpening – I have special practice High Pass filter– 1. Duplicate The Background Layer 2. Change The Blend Mode Of The Duplicate Layer To “Overlay 3. Apply The “High Pass” Filter To The Duplicate Layer – radius 1,2-2 4. Change The Blend Mode To “Soft Light” Or “Hard Light” If Needed To Adjust s?harpeningIn my camera bag
