Alright don’t judge me too hard 😅 but feel free to drop tips on what I can improve. I’m still learning how to use the OM-1 and the 90mm M.Zuiko macro lens. For this shot, I tried the in-camera focus stacking (15 frames), shot in manual mode, and did some edits in Adobe Lightroom.

It’s been an anxiety-filled day, so when I got home from work, I picked up my camera—still figuring things out—but it’s what helps me relax. And somehow, right when I needed it, there was a sleeping bumblebee in our backyard. God’s perfect timing.

Be kind—I’m still learning 🙏

A female Brown Peacock butterfly (Anartia amathea) also known as scarlet peacock or red peacock butterfly. It is a species of Nymphalid butterfly.

A Horse Fly. This slideshow features multiple photos of the same subject I shared earlier. I kept shooting and trying my luck, hoping to capture that one really good shot.

Even our busy bees need a rest too. 😴😴😴🐝🐝🐝♥️♥️♥️

Another chasing moment with a cute bug, this time a Larger Elm Leaf Beetle. Its orange and iridescent greenish color combo makes it extra adorable. Chasing bugs require patience and you got to have a lot of it when you are a macro photographer 😉

The Gray Hairstreak also called Bean Lycaenid. One of the most common butterflies in our gardens. It looks so pretty rubbing it's wings 😍🦋

Oh, what a wonderful feeling when your subject is so cooperative—not only landing on your finger but actually staying there. It’s as if this little bee was saying, “Here I am, go ahead and take my pictures!” 😁😊

Another old video from my gallery. A very cute jumping spider having quiet moments on my hand. What an adorable fluffy creature.
