Sweet Nectar...Shot using Iphone 7+, Image cropped and adjusted for lighting and color corrections. Fortunately for these shots, the subject was airborne for a sec or so which gave me the opportunity to get th is motion freeze shot. Though the image doesn't give the output as that of a macro lens, I still felt it is quite impressive for a phone camera lens. The distance between the phone and the subject was close to 15cms.
