Thanks for the compliments folks!

these were shot 3 weeks ago in Yap.

D70s,10.5mm/Dual SB104s. 1/250th

I spent more time chasing the Pegasus Sea Moth than shooting Mantas. Yap macro rules!

oops, I cant type

not 3 weeks but more like 6. I was there helping on a Video project and talking about macro during the photo clinic.

no after editing on that trip, not when there is a micro brewery on site!

Sheesh! A fisheye? The thing must have been hugging the dome port!

YUP! about 18 inches away. I was bent over backwards by the time I shot that frame.

I have a hidden perch at one of the cleaning stations that puts me at eye level with the mantas as they slowly pass over. this single pass gave me about 6 acceptable images.

What port do you use with that lens? Do you get any vignetting? How is the corner sharpness?

I use the Aquatice 8" dome without any extension ring and a fisheye port shade.

The image is full frame, I have not noticed any vignetting. I need to take it down and do some controlled tests to check the corner sharpness.
