Anna - those are FRICKIN AMAZING! I've seen some neat macro work before, but these are stellar! And I agree, it takes SO much patience and LOTS AND LOTS of shooting to end up with shots like that. AND the dude knows how to post-process them in Photoshop (or Lightroom) to bring out the Snap Crackle Pop in them.

Neat stuff fer sher! Wink

Here is one of my Macro Shots.



Much like cheese, I'm hoping to improve with age! Huh..

Razz Laughing

(thanks again, Anna! Wink)

Hey Sonic, hope you don't mind, but I used your cool image to try doing what I think the BUG DUDE is doing and I zapped up your birdy:



Lots of adjustment layer masks using Levels & Saturation, as well as some selective sharpening.

DOWNLOAD 2 meg PSD FILE so you can see what I did (and then you might explain it to me! Laughing )

Looks great!
I'll have to use that technique on my other photos i have.
Macro is a bit of a passion for me, so i'll have a play with them.

Thanks Smile
