I decided to try out a lens that my aunt and uncle got me, when I noticed that it didn't fit on my camera! Although I was disappointed I was determined to get an okay macro shot. So I went outside, shot many photos of flowers, leaves, and grass. This shot was my favourite because it reminds me of being a little kid & wondering what being a bug is like. The lighting in this shot was a blessing! Although blurred around the edges, that's how I wanted the shot to look. It adds a special element!
a nymph of an Issus spp. but I don't know which one, it doesn't look right for I.coleoptratus with those snazzy stripes so any help is gratefully received.

A bit of an experimental mood today. Not sure for the colors, but I guess this should be something like a bug sees the world.
This bug just fell onto my desk right next to the keyboard. Paralyzed for a few minutes it was an easy target.
Chinch bugs, genus Blissus, are notorious pests, but this is only the second or third one I've ever seen. They are tiny, though. Parkville, Missouri, USA, May 14, 2023.
whats the collective noun for bugs ? a buggery ?
a few more bugs
Two green shield bugs (Palomena prasina) propagating the species, “making the beast with two heads”.
I'm spending this week developing my professional web site (finally!), so I'm going to infill with some of the really groovy bug shots that I got on the weekend with my old friend LP.
It took a while for this cockroach to relax enough to move his head away from his body. For the first few minutes, he was all scrunched up. I thought the definition of his head in this photo really made the shot.
Very creepy viewed large.
Taken handheld with my Nikon D600 for 1/60th of a second at f/8, ISO 1600 with my Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 VR macro lens, using on-camera flash.
Dindymus versicolor, or as it is more commonly known, the Harlequin bug, is currently in plague proportions and enjoying sucking the sap from the native hibiscus (Alogyne huegelii) which is flowering profusely at the moment. In these photos of mating couples the female is on the left and is the one feeding on the sap of the plant.
Assassin bug nymph hatchlings. Still covered in the mucusy yuck from the egg case. These were all shot hand held with a 70-200L lense with a full stack of macro tubes and varying degrees of zoom. Because of the hand held, heavy post production sharpening was needed. Wind was blowing like mad as it usually is here. As you know, with macro tubes it's all manual focus...
Large Milkweed bug (Oncopeltus fasciatus) larvae of several different instars. Approx. 6:1 magnification (6x life-size).
Photographed at the Fullerton Arboretum, Los Angeles County.
Hand-held Nikon D90 at ISO 400 with Nikkor 105D macro lens, 1/200-sec at f/122, open shade & SB-600 Speedlight with O-Flash 3/4-circle Fresnel prism diffuser.
