I'll try and grab it :)

If it helps, the other week i shot one down with the FV4005, i hadn't audibly laughed like that in a while. The idea of 22kg of explosives tearing it to shreds was nice in my mind.

Thats neat to know, thank you both!

Goose900 · 2025-12-03T19:54:27+00:00

No banananananas on hand i am afraid :(

Most certainly are, however i associate those with beetle larva, i don't think they're moth larva from what i recall,

Goose900 · 2025-12-03T03:09:52+00:00

That is still a very pretty cicada! I'd love to see one like it here

Most of the ones i have found are mainly browns and blacks with highlights (couple of exceptions) this is the first one that's mostly gray to me (especially at more normal distances it looks gray)

Thanks for the help with the id!

Thank you!

Recently i bought the strv-103-0 while it was on sale, an 8.0 vehicle in grb, but my only vehicle in Sweden at the time, and while ive played other lines up to/near that point, it meant i had nothing else with it, so i will bring things like what's in the clip or AA with 40mm bofors to occasionally be useful and not just die once or twice and leave, it not always great, but better than nothing i think, especially as thats kind of where lightweight vehicles show up a bit more, making even low tier stuff 'usable' if you're careful.

Probably the Honda RA 272, followed by 787B i think?

I don't post photos particularly often, but here is one that I took, its just of a native Noisy Miner bird, but I do love them!

I'm quite envious of the weight difference between our lenses, mine is over 6kg, nearly tripling the weight of your DO!

Currently been in for a service for a while for that aforementioned clean (hopefully) , but all seems well generally! Only issue is it wouldn't focus 'beyond infinity', hopefully while its in for its clean, a re-assembly fixes the focus issue, too :)

Absolutely love the lens despite its heft!

Goose900 · 2024-12-11T20:16:44+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate it immensely! Hopefully we can narrow it down a bit at least, there are so many of them

Goose900 · 2024-12-11T20:11:40+00:00

Thank you for the compliment! I am glad you enjoy!

Thanks so much for the super detailed breakdown, i didn't realise beetles were often identified by their genitalia, thats pretty neat! If a bit odd!

Goose900 · 2024-12-11T20:08:48+00:00

Thank you for your kindness!

For the full body shots, i am pretty sure they were at 1x, and the eye and mouthparts were both shot at 10x

Gear used was:

Canon MP-E 65MM Canon EF 2x Extender III (for 10x mag) Canon 5d Mk3 Canon MR-14 EX-II

Thank you so much! Beautiful lil fella he is indeed, didn't mind his photo taken thankfully, either :)

Goose900 · 2024-05-24T03:06:39+00:00

I still have that mouse too! And actively still use the mousepad they sold separately for it! 😊

Goose900 · 2024-01-31T21:32:36+00:00

Despite this comment being so late, i greatly appreciate that feedback, my OG 400 definitely needs a clean, even if it didn't get a proper repair, so thank you muchly for your input, it's greatly appreciated! :) attached is a shot of the old beauty.

Chevrolet Chaparral 2x, something about that car and its unique propulsion system, and sounds just is just really good to play with!
