mintstick999 485 Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 Saterday night leg over. See you've got the blurry background bit sorted then Yes, but i don't know what it was i did didn't do anything different........ must of been the camera. Set it to auto mode first and look at the settings...that should give you a rough guide to what your looking for...what set up you using? I've got a Panasonic TZ18 and i had it on auto then turned on the marco if thats any help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mintstick999 485 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Ace. What is the top beetle? A dung beetle i think but he's covered in mud i thought i'd found a different type until i zoomed in and seen the mud on the little bugger. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
