A continuation of my earlier image of shrinking an ant.
My friend Oats said Donns should be small and get shrunk and I disagreed saying that dragons are big and do the shrinking as per my previous white mage image. I then got attacked with this art.
Poor Inno ant who is still shrunk on the ground below me before I so rudely got snatched up by a lizard.

The mature bark of the Black Cherry tree is described as burnt cornflakes. The dark crackling texture makes a terrific natural abstract.

Went back to put some butterfly or moth breeding ground on digital paper. Was not disappointed and had way too much fun with a flash.

New tiny painting of a giantess for the Vigilant Lioness tabletop game! This is but a taste—see Lillian and her (vacant) bus right now on Patreon, where I've simplified the tiers and added new rewards! She'll also be with me at SizeCon, 6/2-6/4!

The spider I posted earlier has been identified by @canyakker and @kernpanik – thank you! It's a crab spider, likely a male Xysticus lanio, which turns out to be fairly common here in central Europe.
Here's another shot of it, perched atop a sapling whose stem has been colonized by aphids (and ants milking them for honeydew).

Another one from when I took my macro lens to the forest last week. Really happy with this one – I've never really photographed spiders before, it was sorta tricky because the depth of field is maybe a millimeter at this distance and it was a bit windy!
(No idea what species this is – if you happen to know, do tell.)

I love how the macro level reveals new worlds, surreal landscapes filled with drama and detail.

If you're interested I've got a deep dive on the Sigma 105mm F2.8 macro on my website. I'm using the L-Mount version on the LUMIX S5 and S5II, but the Sony E mount is identical.


Not everything works well at macro level and shallow focus. Some things look too surreal and unfamiliar. But some things just draw you in to examine the beauty and detail that we could not previously appreciate without getting super close.




Recently adopted a macro lens for my LUMIX S5 and honestly it's been an absolute joy exploring the world through a new perspective.
I'm not into focus stacking or maximizing depth of field though, quite the opposite. It's the shallow focus that I love so much, and working a composition from subjects at a small scale.

I love the blue colour on the central bits of Osteospermums. Then there's the surrounding ring of yellow anthers if you see them at just the right time, and finally the petals. They can be intense and near-perfect when you look up close...

It's #WorldBeeDay! I love bees, especially bumble bees. I worked for a beekeeper for one full year, so I got to do every seasonal activity of beekeeping. Each time I witnessed bees emerging from the hive, I cheered them on: "Go bees, go!"
Yes, I am a nerd for nature.
Stop using pesticides and rip out that environmental abomination you call a lawn. This photo of a Vosnesensky Bumble bee is from my lawn-free yard.

it’s sooo tiny and has an even shorter flange depth than d-mount, making it the world’s tiniest macro lens. (it’s also fixed focus)
