1/250s at F/11, ISO 200, focal length 105mm. Lens Sigma 105mm Macro and a tripod. Adjustments made in PS. I called him crusty because he has so much pollen crust on his leg. What a pig!

Whoa! An ULTRA-close up! This fellow is a little scary! (I guess I always say that when I'm face to face with bugs. lol!) The details are amazing, Bill! Right down to the pollen grains. This must be a killer lens for sure! I know you're going to take a lot of stunning photos with it! Looking forward to a lot more macros! I also like your composition and the way the flower's curling up. It says Fall is here for sure. Nice shot! #520331
