Insect

Olympus E-P2 + Zeiss Sonnar 135/2.8 + extension tube

I've never been particularly interested in insect photography. But when I seat in a garden with the Sonnar 135 attached to the E-P2, it is impossible to resist pointing it at any bug I see. It is actually a good exercise in composition, as the subject position and the type of background (colour, detail, etc) have to be carefully managed.

However, it is a bit frustrating posting the photos without properly identifying the insects. That might be a job for my retirement...
