t’s an Olloclip for my phone. All of these are at 7x magnification. It goes up to 21x, but at that point I feel like I’d be taking photos of individual grains of pollen.
I’ve had macro lenses before, but not since I changed phones awhile ago, and I tend to go a little mad every time I get a new one. All unknown bugs are submitted to bugguide.net for ID, so hopefully I’ll know soon!
(Someday I’ll shell out for the lens on the good camera and THEN we’ll see some hot bug action!)
Nothing wrong with taking photos of individual grains of pollen.

#bugs #I took a picture of a beetle with my phone recently #but I don’t have a magnifier so it’s not as awesome a picture #what was awesome was that it went like this: #’Hey that’s a neat beetle on Dad’s leg.’ #Dad (not seriously): ‘We should take a picture of it.’ #Me: ‘…hey wait a minute *I have a camera on my phone*’ #’*I’m totally going to take a picture of it*’ #Me: *boots up phone* *takes picture* #(it was already off his leg and in the grass by that point) #(but oh well)
