Fantastic! How far away from it were you?
Did you drug it?

I notice its rear end isn't in the picture. Is that because you were holding it with tweezers???

Not a favourite subject of mine.
But it's a most excellent photo.
Well done David.

Hi Mike,

Despite it being an incredible shot, the real secret that Ving isn't telling us is the whole
time the poor little thing kept shrieking, "Help me! Help me!".

Great shot!

Best Regards

Gary

lol chris

thats as much as i could fit onto the frame folks, hence the lack of fly bum
i was a good 20cm away from the subject. i used the 55mm with a 3x TC. it gave me extra magnification and extra distance
