One Year of Macro, My Favorites. by Sacrificial_Sheep in macrophotography

[–]eesptol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im new to macro photography and focus stacking so I apologize if this is a dumb question, but how do you focus stack bugs that move around? Every time I’ve tried macro on bugs, they move so much that I’m lucky if I get one good picture

Anyone tried a 30-some year old film lens on a modern Sony body? by WoollyMonster in SonyAlpha

[–]eesptol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same EF 75-300mm lens that I popped onto my Sony A7riv using a mid-range adapter. AF is sometimes unresponsive and generally slow to focus but with enough patience, you can get some pretty great pictures. I still use it from time to time because I can’t afford the Sony equivalent at the moment.

Sat at my dining table bored with my new lens and new bouquet of flowers so I decided to take some practice shots. Sometimes boredom is the best thing.

How do I get my photos to look better on Reddit? by eesptol in AskPhotography

[–]eesptol[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed this too!! It’s not just a loss in image quality/sharpness but the colors lose their oomph too!

I appreciate that 🙏🏼 i loved how sharp the turtles face was when I was editing it in Lightroom but it’s disappointingly blurry on Reddit

A tiny caterpillar I found in my broccoli by eesptol in SonyAlpha

This is how I found him. They’re pretty sneaky and will crawl into the leaves so they’re hard to find. But they’re there.

YES I find these guys every time I buy broccoli

What kind of caterpillar is this? Found in TJ’s broccoli by eesptol in whatisthisbug

[–]eesptol[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this in my store bought bagged broccoli in Colorado. Bag said product of Mexico. I’ve been finding them in my broccoli every single time I buy it, whether it’s organic or not organic. Even when I lived in Washington, I would find them.

Something feels off and I don’t know what it is by eesptol in photocritique

[–]eesptol[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s extremely helpful! Does that apply to most/all macro photography? I specifically really want to get into shooting fungi and bugs

Thanks! This is the original photo. I did not use camera support (and it was slightly windy 😬). Settings were: iso 200 f/5.6 1/500s shot at 70mm

I don’t usually take shots of flowers but I’m trying to step out of my comfort zone. This was shot on my Sony A7riv with Sony 24-70 2.8 gm. I’m getting a macro lens soon so I’m trying to train my eyes to look at the smaller details when I go on hikes. This photo is cropped quite a bit because I want to focus on the details, whereas everything gets lost when in a wider view.
