I took this today using my 100-400 mm L lens at 400 mm with IS activated, hand held, with a 31mm extension tube on. My settings were f5.6, 1/800, ISO 400.

Beautiful color & detail Shirley! #11520241Shirley D. Freeman September 24, 2016
Thank you, Chuck and Katherine. Most of our bees have that yellow (fur look) around here. It does match pretty good with his environment though. <>< #11520281

Thank you, Jill, John and Nancy. So much appreciated. I am going to be off the grid for awhile. Where we are visiting I won't have internet access, and no phone reception! Hopefully something I can take a photo of though! <>< #11521289

Thank you, Diane. I appreciate that. I think the long lens with the extension tube gave it this affect.<>< #11545033Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
