Hi Cyrus, Your macro work is one of the very best I have ever come across on PBase. The sheer details and super close imagery of such these small insects, that most of us would otherwise pass by. It would be difficult to find a favourite as they are all captured so perfect. Well done and thanks for sharing such a wonderful collection of the macro world. Kind regards, Graeme

Dave		26-Aug-2007 13:33
Spending as much time as you did on lighting these subjects and getting these angles and shots in focus, it's a bit creepy. But, that's what makes great photographs- passionate and obsessed people. The gecko image blows my mind. These images do what the best macro should do- take you into a different world entirely. Congradulations!

Cyrus, I was going to say that this is a world class macro gallery. But that would not do it justice. Your macro work is in a class of its own. This is not amongst finest I have seen. It IS the finest I have seen! You have the complete package here - outstanding lighting, huge patience, fantastic eye, perfect composition and expert processing. There really is no finer work than these. You have inspired me in my own macro shots. When I shoot, I think "How would Cyrus do this?" It makes me produce a better photo! But I don't think I could get near to your standards in a lifetime. Thank you for collecting so much great work together in one place. I shall keep returning to this as a reference collection.

I don't know how to thank you all folks. I am so overwhelmed by your support and kindness, thank you. I am sorry if the exif data is not showing in some of the files. It is NOT because I don't want to share. As a matter of fact, that's all I have been doing lately. I have been asked about my colors and what my approach is to getting them. If that is a question for you as well, please read this: http://flickr.com/groups/mega_shots/discuss/72157600053451347/ About my equipment, I have several bodies and I'm still deciding on which one is best suited for what. I find myself most with my Fuji S3 in hand. as far as the lens go, I have several and I'm testing Canon MP-E 65 as well. I do find myself reaching for my longer lens, almost, all the time. This is particularly for extreme macros and beyond 1:1 . For DOF questions, I DO move often beyond diffraction and way beyond difraction, depending on the subject. For that, you may want to look at this link: http://flickr.com/groups/mega_shots/discuss/72157594560223963/ Also, you may consider your subject's position and play with your focal plain and get DOF where it matters most. You can also get the appearance of more DOF, a little bit, in your post process sharpening. . I will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have and do my best to do so, Kind regards, Cyrus

Thank you all my friends, you are truly incredible in your support and appreciation. I'm honored to be the recipient of your kind comments. . Alfisti, Thank you for the comment and suggestions as well. There was no special reason why some photos are missing exif, it's just the way I originally prepared and saved them for the web. i will try to redo some of them so that you see the full exif. Kind regards to all, Cyrus
