[Submission for the contest Detail in Macro]

I came around this contest lately and today I almost stepped on a dead bee on my balcony floor.Well I'd usually never get that close to any creature that could possibly sting so I tried to get the little hairs in focus^^
I haven't joined any dA contests in years and I'm sure the dead bee wouldn't mind^^


about this photo:
shot with reverse lens and a homemade stabilizer (which looks even more ridiculous than you can imagine) Image was only adjusted to square and wasn't edited in any other way.

Well theres only one problem-there needs to be an accurate exif data to join the contest- how on earth should I figure out the focal length of a reverse lens shot????
So there is none-I hope that's alright in this case....

:bow: Thank you!!
well I don't expect myself to be among the first three-
the're already some impressive entries that definately deserve to win and even if I do good I'd give away the supscription anyways.
But oh well-it's already a pleasure to be accepted.
Time to make some noise about this contest- because the judges are the perfect choice and the prices make you drool (...)
gonna make a journal 'bout it :D

you may join as well if you feel like magnifying :shakefist:

Ohgosh, I read about the contest and decided to have a look at the entries so far to see if I would vaguely stand a chance. This is really beautiful and is making me change my mind about entering xD
I just love the white fuzz around the bee, and the colour scheme looks great, not to mention the detail considering the size of the bee is amazing! Nice job!

:D Great one :D
Oh, by the way, there's no problem with the reverser, it happens the same to me.
The lenses use the maximum aperture, f3.5 on a canon ef-s 18-55mm :D and about the length, as long as i know (i'm not really sure) the length is the same normal or reversed but since the camera has no reading the best is to remember what you set :D
