    Wonderful shots again, the first one really has the wow factor for me - all the shots are excellent, but the detail in that first bee fully laden with pollen just keeps drawing me back for another look.

          They're all top-notch!

          I'd be hard pushed to choose a favourite.

                  It just goes to show that having all the necessary gear (which I certainly do) is no guarantee of success - I have never produced insect macro shots as good as these!

                    I think that they are brilliant.

                    Number 4 stands out for me.

                      Hello

                      They look fabulous OlyPaul. I'm still a beginner, but I'm interested in a macro filter and given I have the same E-PL3 with a 40-150mm lens (one that comes with standard dual lens kit), I was hoping the Sigma piece of kit you have would fit? I've done a lot of hunting but can't work out what the model number of CUF is that I need and whether I need a 'hood adapter' (?).

                      Any advice most appreciated.
