Red crab on the coast of Orissa, India.
They were all over the beach (see picture below). Each one makes a home which is a hole in sand. They are very shy. The moment I stepped on the beach, all crabs within 50 meters around me disappeared into their homes. I had to stay motionless for about 15 minutes before this one came out. It quickly went back in. It was quite far ... I had to use all my optical and digital zooms (40x) to get this shot.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - This red sand was found near the Sand Dune Arch. This narrow canyon sees either very little or no sunlight. So it is much cooler than the surrounding desert.
Another of this red ant. This one stopped for minute and gave me a chance to get some shots. This is focus stacked from 15 or so pictures and I worked really hard on it so please don't focus on the awkward gaps in the focus. Lots of detail here in large and original.
Edit: fixed about 10 "mistakes" in stacking and re-upped.
I'm stuck in the house at the moment with a bad chest infection so thought I'd try an indoor flower shoot.
Getting the light right is the hardest part, I was either washing out the colours and textures or getting some very harsh shadows. In the end I went with a natural side light from moving closer to the window, but its still pretty harsh.
Now I know why people use/make full on light boxes and have 3000 flashes!
Apologies, another water shot. I was trying to see how close I could get my macro lens to the point of impact. This was probably the best as I ended up getting too close on a lot of them and accidentally lost the top of the drop. Colour created by placing red card behind bowl of water.

My backyard Maple Tree has become the caching spot for a pair of backyard Red-headed Woodpeckers. The birds are stashing seeds in a crevice on a tree branch. The birds fly over to the feeder, grab a seed or two and then fly back to the branch to eat the seeds and keep a few in there for later. What a treat to watch this nature show going on right before my eyes in my backyard.
