The quality of the photos is amazing, congrats! When I see this I think of abandoning macro photography and doing fishing instead... Of course, you used more than sunlight or a a normal flash.

Hello Joaquim,

thanks for the flowers. Foto 2 is only with the flash of the camera as usual. Foto 1 is without a flash, the sun was shining just a little bit throug the fog and gave a special light. So it is no reason for fishing...
