A 150mm macro shot of this bug moving across some fallen stone work at Ta Prohm. I love the bokeh on this shot.

This bug is being bugged (by me). I'm trying to hold the camera still but I guess my hands were shaking bad, thus, it's not that good of a macro shot.

Ambush bugs

Bluff Spring Fen, Elgin IL USA

I think ambush bugs are fascinating. They're like tiny armored vehicles or mini-dinosaurs.

I do like Summer but I hate the bugs. At least this one posed for me!

PA- Summer

I'm being eyed by this colorful Cabbage patch Butterfly.

Pentatoma rufipes from Wem Moss in August.

Fly on the wings of love...

Crab spider on a daisy petal. We played a bit of hide and seek getting this shot. After the photo shoot, the spider went back to guarding the flower and waiting for a meal to show up.

Single shot, hand held. Used a Raynox DCR-250 on the macro lens.

Not my usual type of photography, pulled out my macro lens, pretty cool but I welcome any tips as this is a lot tougher than I thought!! Hand held.

about 6mm long (or across)

Si un connaisseur connait "la marque" de cette petite bête, je suis preneur...

Daughter finally got brave enough to hold this cool looking bug which seemed to enjoy being perched on her finger and soaking up the sun. :D

Even the bugs celebrate their holiday in a relaxing manner. LARGE

See Jaki for a solo shot of the same bug on a similar flower.

Tectocoris diophthalmus

Ever been bitten by a love bug? 3 Harlequin Beetles on a Hibiscus leaf shaped like a heart. These beetles are sap-suckers and you can see the damage they've done to this leaf.
