Thanks for the great Review, the superfantastic rating!
I'm not using the best glass,but for this type of tele-macro it worked.

I stayed about six feet back.A fly sees everything so getting close is not an option. :O)

I appreciate the feedback.

Thank you Stan!

It could have used a tiny bit of NR post work.
This was a ---> in-camera zoom resize, some noise is visible.When I use this function to do a quick crop,edit.The result is a slight image quality reduction hence the increased noise. I left it alone.

My favorite part of this image is that unbelievable Bokeh. The thumbnail compression of the image shows it well.
I appreciate the feedback. :thumbsup:
With regards,

Rick
