First time seeing one of these cool-looking bugs. He wasn't too keen on an extended photo session unfortunately. Pselliopus barberi, Reduviidae. Central IL, Fall 2013.
This dragonfly devoured an entire insect in front of my eyes. Unfortunately, I had the wrong lens on my camera at this point and tried shooting with my zoom lens. By the time a got a decent shot, most of the victim had been eaten.
SB 600 off camera. Taken earlier this summer (2007), and I do not remember details.
Learn how to light at Strobist.
If you identify this insect so please let me know it :)!

we went for a lovely walk in Vogrie Country Park. I took tripod and my new toy - a macro focussing rail - along. I am very pleased with the rails. Next, I should have a go at focus stacking.
6-9mm, found this at the horse shoe bog near our house, this is the female I think, it was with a smaller, darker one which I think is the male, I frightened the male off trying to clamber under a barbed wire fence to get a closer look
Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I'm only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown
I broke my heart
Fought every gain
To taste the sweet
I face the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains
I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
