Your BBB is awesome, the dragonflies exquisite and the lizard sublime!

Raised the bar mate. Well done.

Thanks Baz

Coming from someone who takes the stunning shots that you do, that puts a grin on my chin.

These are very nice photos, the perspective seems quite close up and personal, as if they were taken with a wide angle lens rather than a traditional macro lens. Lovely lighting and backgrounds.

Cheers

I'm using a Sigma 150mm Macro lens with and without extension tubes so it gives a bit more focal distance to play with, not bad bit of kit.

Great collection there. Love my Sigma 150 too. With extension tubes gives a great combo of magnification and working distance.

Cheers everyone

It sure is a fun hobby to tie one over when the good astro imaging conditions are a bit scarce.
