एक मच्छर

Macro Magic

एक मच्छर 

Tried stacking two full sets of extension tubes stacked on 550D and a manual Industar 50mm lens. The magnification is unimaginable.. this is a zero crop shot of 3-4 mm mosquito.
The DOF is almost non-existent and when you get something in focus... the shot is magical!

baby's (first) day out.

Macro Magic

baby's (first) day out.

These are just-born spider babies. It was difficult in the first place to spot the spider (which is 5-7 millimeter in length. When i did spot it, i found moving white spots on the leaf and realized that the kiddos have come out since i disturbed the mother.

Instinctively the babies started climbing on the web their mother had woven. It was wonderful sight.

The individual ones are not even one millimeter wide, you can see that by the proportion of the spider web string with the climbing babies. 

I will post picture of the mother later this week.
