Cache cache , vous me voyez ? Hide & seek, do you see me ?

Most of you know that I am terrified of all things with more than four legs but for the sake of the project I have to make the most of every photo opportunity. Unlucky guy has lost one of his leg.

Love Exposure's layout!

I normally can't stand bugs of any shape or size, but I couldn't stop chasing this little guy around to get a shot of him.

I have no idea what kind of....

i guess it's a norfolk damselfly (in german: hauben-azurjungfer)...

have a happy weekend everyone!

already have a image of this one but liked so included it also

You’d think that a lunch stop this time of year would be wasp free but no! This little fellow walked along my friend Ian’s cycle top and let me take his photo.

Kind of in-your-face. I apologize if you hate bugs! He is a thing of beauty, though, with his bright markings.

I'm off for a few days for the long Labor Day weekend. Happy clicking!

This is an insect that attacked me when I was in a prairie. I escaped it and while it was sitting peacefully I took this picture. I still have no clue what it is though. I looks like a cross between a mosquito and a bee to me.

The flower I thought was really pretty too as it seems to be a flower that has flowers growing on it in the center.

Highest explore position: #158 (Thanks everyone!)

None of the flies (or other insects) in my photos are frozen or dead. None have been manually 'posed'. All are photographed alive and well in their natural environment, unless they are being killed or eaten by another insect in the photo.
