You looking at me?

Today I'm quite lucky. I found this fellow posing for few seconds for me, just enough for me to point my camera with +4 close up filter, focus and snap a few shots. But none of the shots are crispy sharp. All of them has this dreamy soft focus look. I guess since I'm using a el-cheapo second hand auction-bought single element close up filter the result can't be as sharp. But then again, it could be my skill as well.

Anyway, enjoy the pic and remember to wash your hand before meals.

Flower and Bee

I went to Alexandra Hospital Butterfly Trail today just to find this cute little fellow circling around, so I try to capture it using my KM D7D with KM 100-300 F4.5-5.6. After numerous attempt under blistering sun, this is the one that capture the bee in the sharpest. It's not as sharp as I wanted to be, but I may be able to do better next time.

Things that is done right:
- Patience, patience and patience
- Prefocus, since there is no way the AF can follow this litte fella (at least not my lens)

Things that should have been done:
- Use shutter priority or manual mode to capture the bee in its sharpest. Using aperture priority does make the DOF acceptable, but the fast movement cause the blur bee.
