I made friends with this tired bumblebee today. I placed it on a small concrete block and fed it some honey. I don't think it liked the flash burst, so I gave up after a couple of shots. This is the better one.
I'm quite impressed at how much detail I managed to capture in this photo; you can clearly make out the texture of the bee's eye and antennae.
Settings: f/5.6, 1/180, ISO 200, 50mm Cosinon M42, 77mm extension, 1/4 flash, foil reflector. Some RAW tweaking (luminance curve, noise reduction ,sharpening, cropping.)
