Hi Paul - yellow and black longhorn beetle - i had one land on my lens this afternoon!

@LouisaLee63 Месяц назад

Inspired by your video, went outside in my yard and the wind was intense. I still tried to get some photos because taking photos beats not taking them!

It is so hard in strong wind... but not impossible. Well done for giving it a try

I had the 100mm Canon macro lens and have taken thousands of pictures with it. Macro is not easy because of the shallow depth of field but you can get some 😅very good results with it. I had to give the lens up because my knees went and I just couldn’t get down to get pictures of Insects. I now do my Insect shots with my 100-400 mm lens. You are a bit limited sometimes but I do alright. I have quite a library so I have taken most things including your Black and Yellow Longhorn Beetle. You showed, maybe not intentionally, just how difficult macro can be but it is great just to get out in nature and enjoy your photography.

Thanks for sharing your experiences. Yes, it can certainly be challenging - personally I find it the toughest area of nature photography. Lenses like the 100-400 can be really great for insects!

With the trees in full leaf it is a good time to switch over to macro photography. Great work Paul

@paulbaldwin2290 Месяц назад

Some cracking photos Paul keep us learning 👏👏Glad to see your human 😂

Thank you my friend. To be honest, it was a challenging morning!

Hi Paul! Great video and great work.

@daelpixphotography Месяц назад

Lovely shots of the snail, Paul. I need to use my EF 100mm lens more often. I may have a trip to Harlow Carr Gardens soon.

@lauriefish58 Месяц назад

Great video Paul, I struggle as well with stabilizing my macro shots hand held. Definitely harder than it looks! Cheers my friend.

Hi Paul! I took a picture of the same kind of insect a few years ago, but I can't remember the name of it either! 😂😂In my case it's my age!

@PaulMiguelPhotography Месяц назад

I think it's a Spotted Longhorn

@ashstubbings2603 Месяц назад

@@PaulMiguelPhotography Yes! That's the one! It's all coming back to me now! 😁😁

@lilym1428 Месяц назад

The insect at the end looks like a longhorn beetle. Spotted Longhorn Beetle (Rutpela maculata) I think.

@deirdreharness2701 Месяц назад

Great video, love the thumbnail

@PaulMiguelPhotography Месяц назад

Thanks Deirdre. Appreciate that.

@alansmith3885 Месяц назад

The longhorn beetle maybe Strangalia maculata. I photographed a mating couple of them in the New Forest some years ago and it looks the same as this.

@JohnDrummondPhoto Месяц назад

The insect at 10:57 appears to be a Spotted Longhorn Beetle (Rutpela maculata). I only know this from Google.

Today I use my RF 100-500 to shoot macro-ish photos. I can get some good results that I realize are more “ happy accidents”, then actual skill! I’ve never done true macro, but it will be my next genre to explore. So forgive the beginner question! I do own a monopod. Would it be beneficial to use a monopod for stabilization in macro? I like to walk around a lot of the time, so I can’t see carrying a tripod. I’m saving up for the Rf 100 2.8. I just hope I don’t need a lot of other gear.

The 100-500 can be a decent lens for some subjects, e.g. dragonflies. The 100mm macro will be a great lens for macro. I'd say a monopod can really help, yes. But the problem is it's often still difficult to get into position (a tripod is worse!). I'd give it a go. Here's a video where I tried it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UeMRW03re5I.html
