Thought it was Dead - 01-31-2012, 05:23 AM

Critique: CC:

Well, the Macro Gods threw me a bone the other day. I was outside the barracks and caught a glimps of color and there was a ladybug. It was cold and I thought it was dead. So, I thought how easy is this going to be to get some shots. I eased it on to a bit of paper and took it inside. Set my gear on the tripod, turned around and it was gone. Dadgum thing came to life and jumped on the floor; so did I.lol Only got a few shots and took it back outside. PS: My floors do look a lot cleaner when not in Macro.LOL : )

Ha! I kind of like the first one mostly because it looks like your floors are dirty. It's all that tiny stuff that you never notice that makes macro fun! (Although I'm not taking a picture of my floors anytime soon...)

He could be vacuuming the floor since the floor in the second picture is cleaner.

Good shots.
