RE: NEWS FROM THE MEADOWS - 26. April 2021

Thanks :) glad you like these scenes from the nature in my area. I use the camera Canon PowerShot SX60 HS ... and the macro lens adapter Raynox DCR-250 Super Macro Snap-On Lens ... for the macro I often use the built - in flash of the camera, but I cover it with a piece of toilet paper.

So sorry for the late message, was tied up with some things. I love coming here to read amazing works.

I love your work really @borjan

Yeah, that's really nice,and I thought that as much, I knew that can't be a phone's shots.
You use a piece of toilet paper? That's really creative of you — really cool. I guess you did that because the light coming out of the Camera is kind of harsh, right?

I gotta try this toilet paper trick sometime, love your macrophotography.

:) It's an easy and versatile trick ... sometimes I use just one, and sometimes more layers of the paper ... it depends mostly on how close I am to the insect ... and a bit also on how bright is the ambient light and on the camera settings for the particular shot, there is a lot of space for experiment... the shape of the built - in flash on many cameras makes it easy to envelop the flash without having to stick or glue anything
