Had the first dragonfly captures of the year in thegarden today- a common darter. It allowed me to get pretty close
Today took a few minutes to observe some antlions, and was able to see one building a sand pit trap. Dig a couple out to take some pictures of this monsters of the macro world. Also was able to photograph an ant being capture. Notice that they do not eat their preys, the jaws are hollow and through them they suck the fluids out of its victim. It was like a science fiction movie. Sorry for the scary images, do not show this one to your kids. (Crop image to show more details). My Macro/Micro World
Spanish/ Español: Hoy como si hubiera visto algo de ciencia ficcion, pues observando y fotografiando la hormiga león, tuve la suerte de ver una hormiga caer en su trampa y ser atrapada con sus garras. No se la comio, sino que sus garras son tambien aguijon que chupa el contenido de sus victimas.

Sidirokastro, 4 August 2012. Macro photography. Reversed lense (Canon EF 50mm Æ’/1.8 II stoped down to Æ’/11) attached in front of the EF 85mm Æ’/1.8 screwed on the camera, aperture wide open. Flash Canon 430EX II with a white piece of paper tied on top of it, in order to reflect the light downwards 3~4cm in front of the lens where the focus point is. The result is a good enough image quality and lighting. A common fly sitting on the edge of a leaf.

Rural snails like posing in the rain... naked!
This snail was about 7mm small... silly me took a macro of a small one and it looks just like a big one without macro! lol
What a fantastic insect these beauties are and for me must rank as one of the most stunning insects in the UK.
Una prueba de que la vista siempre se dirige a la zona enfocada, aunque su tamaño en el encuadre sea mÃnimo.
From my archives, this photo was taken from the Singapore Botanic Garden. A 3-composite HDR from a single RAW file. Could use a little de-noising though. =)
