Now as you know, I don't normally do macros of bugs but I spotted this monster on a rose leaf. This one inch thingy was so large that even I could get a snap of it.
I assume he got that big by eating our garden

Look, I'm an old man. I shouldn't be expected to put up with this.
You should do bugs more often, Pete, this one's a cracker!
I assume it was taken either with a milk bottle strapprd to a pair of toys binoculars or some obscure lens manufactured in Mongolia at the turn of the last centuary, mounted on an extention tube home made from a toilet roll tube.
Whatever it was, it works a treat!

Now methinks you are taking the mickey :-)
Of course it should have been a trusty old Tamron, but it was actually the 50mm ZD plus the EC14

Well I never! It just shows that the 50mm ZD is really no better than a milk bottle strapped to a pair of toy binoculars.....You've just saved me a lot of money!
Great picture!
