My wife's comfrey plant is a good base for posing insect on, that is if they do not decide to enjoy the sun from that location on their own. This locust with it colorful body made for a good subject for the Tamron with the +4 macro filter since it really fills the frame nicely. I do not typically shoot macro at such a lower magnification, so for your pleasure I have included a sample taken of the same species using one of my reverse mounted lenses.
And a much closer view taken with a reverse mounted manual zoom lens.
