Hi, I am a newbie here...and have just gathered the courage to share some photo shots that I have taken, for some constructive critique...though that has taken me some time...*grin*
Anyway, I would just like to ask...I am very interested in taking pictures of insects; grasshoppers, butterflies, ladybirds...which is common at my place...my problem is, I am quite clumsy in my movements...and by the time I settle down and set my camera, my model insect would have flown away...either that, or the sound of 'click' of my camera would have scared them...and I don't have a good picture...
Is there anything I can do so that I do not scare my un-aware victims away?...I tried zooming from a distance, but even that, creates the slightest sound...and they fly...
Hence, I never EVER have a good shot of any insects whatsoever...only dead ones...
