Photographers: Photograph a Day

Any DSLR with true 1:1 macro lens could do the same thing. It is more on the lens than the body.

Yeah I understand that, I guess what was really trying to get at is whether or not this is cropped or if it's the original size. I don't really know anything about macro photography.

Seeing these macro shots is giving me lens-lust.

Nice shots!

Thanks!

It was shot at 1:1 life size then I cropped it a lil bit to make it look more than 1:1. I could use extension tube or teleconverter to increase the magnification to 2:1 or 3:1. 1:1 is true life size, 2:1 is 2x bigger, 3:1 is 3x bigger....Macro photography is fun, but it requires a lot of patience. You have to hunt and stalk those insects without scaring them away.
