Jewel Beetle

[Bibhav Behera]

Shot in my garden. Low light conditions.

Full frame image.

Canon EOS 1000D, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
SS 1/125 (-1/3 EC)
f/8
ISO 1600

Built in Flash Fired at -1 Compensation.

Comments and Critiques welcome.

Colourful background. A higher depth of field would have been great. The light was less and you were already at ISO 1600. Wish the pink patch behind the beetle would have been broader. A tripod would have been great. Look forward to more.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi
