20140807 - 1 253 Meadowhawk (f) 2.jpg

Ottawa West

I took this image using my 105 mm macro lens and 1.4 T.C. to experiment and see how this combo worked for closeup shots. I was quite pleased with the results.

Note, the long hind legs of the Dragonfly.

Nikon D300S ,Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR Micro
1/1600s f/5.6 at 150.0mm iso720 full exif

Indeed, not bad at all!
I use the same lense quite often, but never tried it in combination with the extender. Have to try it myself someday... :-)

Great image Hank. The tc setup comes in handy when photographing wasps.

What a spectacular photo - you should be pleased with the results.

Doug Griffith 13-Aug-2014 10:37
Amazing image, Hank. In terms of IQ, up there with Carlo. Plus…nothing wrong with the D300s IQ, either.

Pierre Martin 13-Aug-2014 09:17
sharpness is "au rendez-vous" Hank

Penny B 13-Aug-2014 09:05

I can't believe the detail you have in this shot Hank. Very other-worldly.

This is awesome, Hank. Great shot.

Never thought of using the tele convertor on the 105.
