Another accessory that I keep in my bag during macro trips is a small scissor to cut grass stems: sometimes I find butterflies and other bugs that sleep between the bushes or between high grass. In this case, instead of flattening all the grass behind the subject to get a clean background, I simply cut the grass stem where the bug is perched and I move it in a convenient location, where I can take the photo against a distant, clean background. Of course, this technique has some limitations: you can use it only in early morning, when the bugs don't fly away, and you can use it only if the subject is posed on a grass stem - don't even thing of cutting an orchid or a rare plant! (no, I don't feel guilty when I cut poor grass stems ;-) Do you feel guilty when you cut grass in your garden?)
I use the scissor, instead of breaking the stem with my hands, because it allows to cut the stem much more gently than breaking it, so there are less chances to scare away the bug.
Some accessories that I don't use, but you may find interesting, are: reflectors and diffusers (they help to soften the light, but I take all my macro photos in early morning so I already have soft natural light), colored cards as backgrounds (I have tried in the past, but unless you create hundreds of "artificial backgrounds", all your photos will have identical backgrounds! I prefer to create a pleasing background using a long lens that blurs the background), spray bottles filled with water to create "artificial dew" (they are not necessary...you just need to go out in early morning and you will often find bugs covered by dew; and if you don't find dew...no problem! It is not necessary to have always a subject covered by dew!).
The first hours of the morning are the "magic moment" for macro photography. Butterflies and other insects are covered by dew and they stay still, waiting for the first rays of sun to dry their wings. It is quite easy to get close without scaring your subject, and you have a lot of time to compose carefully the photo and to repeat the exposure if you are not satisfied by the results. I take the majority of my macro photos from 30 minutes before sunrise to 1-2 hours after sunrise.
Other than that, the light at sunrise is warm and soft; it creates very pleasing colors and light shadows. During the day, instead, the light becomes progressively harsher, and at midday there are strong dark shadows and excessive contrast. If I find an interesting subject harsh light, I try to shade it with my own shadow, but it works only if the subject is a flower or a tame bug (don't try to shade a butterfly - it will fly away). Moreover, you have to put in shade both the subject and the background: if you photograph a subject in shade against a bright background, you get very poor results.
S vremena na vreme se baš svašta može pročitati na forumima.
Kolibrija je sigurno spržio sa 200 kila azota... ;)
Ovoga je tukao Azotom iz cisterne, valjda ;D ... eno mu orošene travkice ....
Zorane, da li si ti uopste ozbiljan ako ovu fotografiju svrstavas u macro?
Ili ti je ponestalo argumenata pa sada pokusavas za zamenis teze?

Pa pazi, Juza ima toliko kvalitetnih fotografija, sa kojima je stekao reputaciju koja ne ostavlja mnogo prostora za ne verovati onome što napiše ... tako da, ovo tele je sasvim adekvatan pandan ledenom spreju. :)
Ovo nije fake?
Ja sam oduvek bio poklonik ideje - ako znaš da kritikuješ nekog, onda pokaži kako se to radi. Nego, na kraju uvek nekako ispadne da se kritičar ne bavi baš tom vrstom fotografije koju najviše kritikuje kroz nečiji rad.
Što se tiče poznavanja, nije nepoznato da Žare voli iz zabave da tera kontru ... ono, pusti post, pa se zavali i smeška ... pa ko se upeca upeca ...
bice da je problem u tome sto covek sve to ne pravi (na zalost) IXUSom.
.... neodoljivo podseca na onu kada mrmot ponovo zamotava cokoladu.
Čekaj, ti zapravo hoćeš reći da si 31-5-2009 u 11.13 napravio identičnu fotografiju onoj koju si napravio dan ranije 30-5-2009 u 11.14 časova?
Ili si muljao nešto sa Exif podacima....
ne znam Zare zasto je toliko tesko verovati da bube mogu da se fotkaju na spavanju...
