Hi TrekLens members and visitors,

Today I want to share one of my favourite macro shot, which was taken this spring in my garden in Mragowo.

Lilly beetle is quite common visitor in our gardens, it was unussual to find him sitting on a daisy. Shot was taken using Raynox DCR-250 macro lens. Cropped just a little from original size, noise was removed in Neat Image.

Hello Adrian
What a great macro photo of the insect. The image is razor sharp. I love the composition with the diagonal position of the main subject and the crop that is artistically done. Good neutral bacjground and very natural colors. Very interesgting note.
Bravo

I like the light and composition in this shot. I would have preferred the focus on the antennae but I know well how hard it is to control it.
Regards,
Tibi
