    Apart from it being a beautiful species, it should be said that the control in focus and precise depth of field you pick do not go unnoticed. As I assume most are handheld shots, this takes lots of skill and practice. Posted 5 years ago

      Thanks so much for your kind words <3. My shots are handheld, although I sometimes use a tabletop, mini tripod on days where I'm too shaky ;). I set the tripod legs against my abdomen to add a bit of stability when I'm standing...and, I think it helps! Posted 5 years ago
