Detail of the eye of the last instar (nymph) of an African bug (Lubumbashi, DR Congo, January 2013, ID?). Specimen is about 7mm long; it was preserved in ethanol for 3 months, taken out and immediately photographed to avoid dessication of the eyes.
Studio stack based on 97 images (ISO100, 1", Apo Gerogon 240mm as tube lens with iris set on 16, 3x Jansjo leds diffused through paper cylinder). Zerene stacker (Dmap, Pmax), treated moderately in LR (CA), Picasa & GIMP (artifacts, but not all). Cropped from 2.7mm wide to 2mm, now magnification of about 18x (FF).
I think these are the nymphs of the Spined Predatory Shield Bug (Oechalia schellenbergii). Seen at Evan’s Crown Nature Reserve, Tarana, NSW.

These bugs are nymphs of the one I posted in the previous picture. They stay close together for a while; the adults seem to like a little more space to themselves.
Milkweed bugs (Oncopeltus fasciatus) know EXACTLY when the milkweed flowers (Asclepias tuberosa) are gone and the seedpods have formed. There are usually bugs of varying sizes on my plants. Here is a photos of a mating pair. Their offspring are all orange at first, and tiny.
This is a group of Large milkweed bugs - Oncopeltus fasciatus. There are adults and nymphs in various stages of developement. It's no surprise that the favorite food of the large milkweed bug is the seeds and tissue of the milkweed plant Asclepias.

I almost didn't realize that the black spots inside this yellow flower were actual bugs until I got my macro lens out and took a few pictures. I'm not sure if they were dead or just simply hanging out in there.
After all the winter months doing just landscape and street photography, today I went out looking for bugs for the first time this year and I could find some of my loved damselflies :-) It served as well for using the Oly in these matters for the first time with the Zuiko 60 mm macro.
