I had no idea what this was that I found in my garden today.

Thanks to Alan for ID. See link below for details.

initially, i thought they were mating but on closer inspection, i saw cannibalism first hand. i felt pity to the red damsel but one must die so that others may live. this is one of nature's harshest law.

finally, i had a clean shot of its head..

A beautiful metallic green bee, gathering pollen from a spiderwort blossom.

Yay, this little guy got up to #7 on Explore :)

First test with the Mitutoyo 5X. Pentax SMC K 135mm f2.5 as tube lens. So the magnification is about 3.3X

 

Sorry for reflections. Need to redesign the diffuser.

The original, full color version of this shot can be seen here. I was inspired to re-process it after seeing a similar ladybug image done this way, and I really really love how it came out!

A weekend visitor. This little fella was on the move & wasn't sticking around for me. Looking back I should have had a smaller aperture to achieve increased DOF & focus on his body. Next time.

In my mind's eye
