Pompadour gets to wear the pink version of Bugged, of course ;) She is a Valentine's day Sybarite and a girly girl after all!
There were about one hundred of these, at a place outside of White Sands, NM. "Brave Little Toaster", anyone?
So today I was taking a picture of a sunflower and some of its pollen fell out. I decided to take pictures of the pollen, so I was tapping the flower to get pollen to fall. Out fell this little bug that was hiding in there! He kept getting caught up in all the pollen and I thought it was kind of cute. Little tiny sunflower bug. Look at all the pollen trapped in his legs!

On my latest Sunday stroll to Pennington Flash I was (perhaps sadly) delighted to find a ladybird, bee and a shield bug! Oh how you spoil me.
Yes, in a few months I'll probably be bored stiff of these as macro subjects but for someone who has been starved of "wild" macro action for months even the most common of insects are a joy to behold.
Unfortuantely they didn't stick around and pose for long as I shoved by camera lens in their personal space, so I was also reminded of the more frustrating aspects of macro photography.
Photographed is a lighthouse in Portland, Maine called Bug Lighthouse. I took this photograph in what was possibly the windiest environment my body has ever been put through. I thought I had decent endurance for winter winds, but my eyes started watering after a point of staying here and trying to photograph this lighthouse.
Since I used a ND filter, I setup the camera on a tripod and did a long exposure of 30 seconds. I had to hold the tripod tight to counter the winds. This was one hell of a photography experience!

It is so tiny. OPEN in "All sizes" to see more detail. These bugs are annoying my hibiscus plants a lot and cause mutant growth. Along with the shield bugs they cause many problems. There are over 330 000 insects in Australia and it is hard to identify them but I will try.
For another photo, even more macro of this bug open this:- www.flickr.com/photos/25747229@N00/356238417/

Spotted on the way to the Billie Swamp Safari deep in the Florida everglades was an old VW transformed into some type of creature...complete with a pierced tongue and tail.
Plenty of rooms available at the bug hotel in the grounds of St Peter and St Paul Church at West Mersea on Mersea Island in the County of Essex (UK).

Poor guy. He doesn't realize no bugs are coming his way.
3 exposure HDR.
I didn't realize how ratty this fixture looked until I took this photo. Afterwards I bought a new one but that started the usual snowball effect that ends in cursing when I try to do a home project.
The wood behind the fixture was rotten so I had to fix that. Then the new fixture was too tall and hit an awning thingy right above it so I had to go back and get another smaller one but while I'm at Home Depot my $20 sunglasses fall out of my pocket somewhere so I had to stop at WalMart and buy another pair. Then I get home and realize that the smaller fixture doesn't have a photo sensor and on and on and on......aaarrrgghh!!

got bugs
I got bugs in my room
Bugs in my bed
Bugs in my ears
Their eggs in my head
Bugs in my pockets
Bugs in my shoes
Bugs in the way, I feel about you
Bugs on my window
Trying to get in
They don't go nowhere
Waiting, waiting...
Bugs on my ceiling
Crowded the floor
Standing, sitting, kneeling...
A few block the door
And now the question's:
Do I kill them?
Become their friend?
Do I eat them?
Raw or well done?
Do I trick them?
I don't think they're that dumb
Do I join them?
Looks like that's the one
I got bugs on my skin
Tickle my nausea
I let it happen again
They're always takin' over
I see they surround me, I see...
See them deciding my fate
Oh, that which was once...was once up to me...
Now it's too late
I got bugs in my room...one on one
That's when I had a chance
I'll just stop now
I'll become naked
And with them...I'll become one
