Good evening everyone, how are you, my friends who love macrophotography objects, and I hope you have a pleasant day and are in good condition wherever you are. On this occasion I went back to explore the small forest and the weather during the day looked so bright, and at that time I immediately explored this small forest and suddenly I found a species of spider crawling on one of the wild leaves, and at that time I immediately approached it to see it closely.

And at that time I saw this species of spider was preying on a species of the first green beetle. And at that time I immediately took my smartphone camera and macro lens in my small bag, and without waiting long I immediately took several portraits of pictures that looked very beautiful and graceful, and you can see below some portraits of a species of spider that was preying on another species of small animal, and you can see below.

After I photographed this species of spider, I accidentally saw a brown grasshopper that looked so attractive. And at that time I saw this grasshopper species perched on one of the wild leaves and its small shape with a brown color that looked so perfect, and at that time I immediately took several different portraits and looked very beautiful and attractive, and you can see below some portraits of this brown grasshopper species.

Then I found another beautiful butterfly species with wings that looked so attractive and perfect. But unfortunately, I couldn't take too many pictures because this butterfly flew away and disappeared. You can see below some portraits of the butterfly species I managed to take this afternoon, and I hope you like and enjoy them.

That moment when you spotted the spider already working on the green beetle says a lot about your timing and patience. I like that you always keep the phone and macro lens in your bag, it really pays off during quick encounters. Butterflies love to play hard to get, so getting even a couple before it bolted is a win. Which clip on macro lens are you using right now, and how close can you usually get before they spook?

I took close-up shots using a regular macro lens. Thank you so much for liking it and taking the time to stop by, I really appreciate it.

Thanks for the reply. Do you remember the brand or magnification of that macro lens, and roughly how close you can get before they spook, maybe 2 to 5 cm? Any quick trick you use to keep the phone steady in bright light?

I usually buy macro lenses from online app stores, and I take photos at a maximum of 2 cm or more, depending on the detail of the object. Thank you very much for your comments, and I really appreciate them.

Thanks for clarifying. Two centimeters is bold, no wonder the frames feel so close. To keep things steady, a finger ring or small grip helps, and using the volume button as the shutter cuts shake. I also shade the subject with a hand to tame glare and use a faster shutter if the camera app lets me.

Lovely. Insects are really beautiful especially when you get closer to them. You'll see how beautifully made they are and you appreciate the way they existed. You took beautiful photos of them.
