I suddenly have an afternoon free yesterday, and I was thinking of several things to do which would involve the least travel time and minimal effort. The answer that came up was to do something at a park nearby, a quick 2-3 hours shooting session, so I decided on insect macro photography. Thank goodness all the necessary batteries (camera, AA reusable batteries for flash) were fully charged and ready to go. I packed the OM System OM-1 and Olympus 60mm F2.8 Macro lens, together with my old yet trusty Olympus FL-50R flash with AK diffuser attached for this session. With the short amount of time, I think I got some decent results! No particular goal, just wanted to sweat a little and work the camera. I said I wanted to do more macro this year, and so I did!
