Thats a crackin shot of a d-fly. I shot a lot of these lately and was wondering if you had a reference for how to type d-fly's? I think I got a few species this week an I have no idea how to identify them. Thanks for sharing.

Looks almost like a cactus. Very interesting backlighting and subtle detail. The photo really grabs you. It'll stick in people's minds. Excellent. Again, I'm guessing this isn't so much a close macro as a more distant telephoto enlargement?

thanks Ronnie,great background achieved here.
My congrats to get this pic sharp at 1/30 on a 300mm lens.

Ronnie Gaubert   {K:3700} 5/30/2005
HEllo Guido,
Except for minor corrections on the exposure and white balance, this is a full frame, out of the camera image. I strive to achieve these types of backgrounds. The reason for this background is because it was taken with a 300mm lens and the nearest object, a field of grass and a scattering of small trees where over 100 yards behind the subject. Couple that with a relative small aperture and this is the results. I treat the background of my images with the same importance as the subject. That is what seperates my work from many others in my opinion.
Thanks for commenting and please continue to do so.

Ronnie Gaubert
