I really need to buy a book so I can identify caterpillars! They're one of the few things not covered by "Complete British Wildlife".
My old Samsung camera has stopped working. :-( I took this pic with a borrowed Nikon and I'm not impressed by the quality of macro shots. Can anyone recommend a cheap digital compact that takes decent macro pics?
I identify all of my animals on the internet. It's sometimes an ordeal but I usually get it done. That's a pretty unusual looking caterpillar. I like all the little bumps. I don't really have any experience with cameras other than my Canon Powershot A590. The ratings on it are pretty good. It seems to work well enough, and there are add-ons to get better macro shots. i've been looking at them lately myself.
I love to read your comments. If you're familiar with any of the places, plants or creatures or have anything else to add, please feel free to leave a comment below.

ReplyDeleteI can see why you aren't happy with the macro on the Nikon. Still, love the shot and that caterpillar has some pretty colors and cool little bumps.
ReplyDeleteHe's a cutie with all those spots. You've taken some wonderful photos.
ReplyDeleteI love the spots. Never seen one this color.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could John but I too have been searching and searching. I can't even afford to buy a macro lens right now.
ReplyDeleteMy dream is the new Sony A-900. but, that is way down the road.
By the way I think your macros are wonderful!!

Pesticides survive by eating leaves of plants. Photography can make a lot of sense.
