The rain is welcome for the garden in general and certainly gave the roses another dimension. I used my favourite Olympus legacy 50mm lens on the Fuji with a 16mm extension tube to get a bit closer, shooting at between F1.8 and F4. It is a very low contrast lens which really suits the shallow depth of field.

180mm Macro Trial
Thanks for the loan of the 180mm Sigma Macro Bryan. Have done a few images with it. I like the shallow depth of field for the more pictorial shots like the Hoverfly but do find it limiting for general macro work - I tried all combinations of shutterspeed and ISO versus small aperture to try and get enough depth of field for the entire Speckled Bush Cricket..
