Another great macro.

Bev what is your hit rate? When you find a minibeast on average how many shots does it take to yield something like this?

Lol..Thanks TCO, with this subject it was petty easy i think it was the best out of 2 shots, as it was very still on the leaf, but it depends on the subject, take hovver flies, they can be a challenge sometimes taking numerous shots to get one thats satisfactory.
I also use the Ext tubes 99% of the time with my macro shots, and this has been a challenge in itself, but once you get the hang of these they have really helped me with my hit rate
