A new toy arrived in the post! Inspired by the images of @jamie_hall_definitive_imaging, @macrochambers and @cygnustech, I contacted @cygnustech to get my hands on one of his custom diffusers to use with the new DCR-250. After a little play, I can confirm that it's an amazing addition to my kit back. It's design allows for a really nice diffused light from the flash, this is a massive help in extreme macro situations like with this Zebra Jumping Spider. 🕷 Salticus scenicus 📸 Canon R5 🔭 Canon EF 100mm L Macro 🔍 Raynox DCR-250 ⚡ Godox TT685c + Cygnustech v2 macro diffuser. 🔢 Single Frame #Cygnustechdiffuser #spider #salticusscenicus #canonr5 #canonmacro #invert_macro #naturephotography #wildlifephoto #passion_in_macro #wildphotography #kings_macro #earthcapture #insects_of_our_world #raw_insects #king_insects #spidermacro #highkey #zebrajumpingspider #flashphotography #macro_perfection #Arthropod_Perfection #macro #eyes #naturelovers #macro_freaks #cupoty #britishwildlife #dcr250 #raynox #raynoxdcr250 @canonuk @britishspiders

Devils Tooth
Devils Tooth
We have just retuned from a week in the stunning Cairngorms, the weather wasn't great but we made the most of it none the less. Here is one of the species of fungi we thought we may be a little late for. With some advice from a friend we managed to find a few specimens of this Devils Tooth, fortunately this one was still in good shape! We then bumped into a very nice chap who turned out to be a local recorder of toothed fungi. He proceeded to show us dozens more specimens and half a dozen more species of toothed fungi. Unfortunately they had all gone their best but he invited us back up in the coming years and promised to show us around. He has also sent us an excellent guide he co-wrote to toothed fungi of the Cairngorms. www.maxthompsonphoto.co.uk

We have just retuned from a week in the stunning Cairngorms, the weather wasn't great but we made the most of it none the less. Loch Morlich was our base for the week. This was taken on the day we arrived, it was the best chance we had to do a landscape as the forecast for the rest of the week was rather poor. Here you can see Cairngorm mountain and the ski centre in the background. www.maxthompsonphoto.co.uk
