I WhatsApp the images to myself.
They shrink on the way.
It's a right faff and they get crushed like MP3 music.

Hello everyone,

Nice your photo of drop of oil Philippe.

External links can be "scary". I think it is better if the photo is uploaded and viewed in the forum.
The maximum image size is 500 kb I believe.

Friendships,
Frank

It is true that it takes patience :)

Still in the field of macro photography, here are 2 photos:
a photo of dandelion flower and a photo of elderflower taken with the sigma 105 macro on a 5Dmk2 in aperture priority at f11, stabilization activated, manual focus at a ratio between 1/1 - 1/2 and handheld lifting (waste: 2 correctly sharp photos on the desired plane out of 20 on average) :

Hello friends,

I present to you some macro photos taken on June 12 in my garden with the Canon 5DmkII and the sigma 105 mm macro lens and freehand
(with the beautiful sun of June 12 in the Paris region (France), I was able to significantly reduce the exposure times with a slide closed at f11 to have a little more depth of field and I had very little waste motion blur I find)

impressive your photos of ants Jcoogler.
Makes me want to try :)

On the other hand, the wasp of CU ŒIL will not fit in my microscope ;)
