All my own work - coloured inks on genuine watercolour paper.
I've done a lot of this art, using coloured inks, with great results (which are hanging on our walls) so it's been fun to do this special little tiny delight.
The Asilidae are the robber fly family, also called assassin flies. They are powerfully built, bristly flies with a short, stout proboscis enclosing the sharp, sucking hypopharynx. Robber flies, often resemble wasps or bees more than they do flies. They certainly bear little resemblance to house flies.

This was fun and what a nice result. The reality is that it's my kitchen grater and two lights, a red and a blue. The result is an interesting vista of the little holes, with reflections from the lights swirling through.
Oil on water is one of the first subjects that everyone should try out when they get a macro lens. We have been having fun making some amazing abstract shots using this method, you can see how in our latest video >>> youtu.be/mixLIIQ5N00
It's a super simple setup that can get some colourful and creative shots right out of the gate. We have spent many hours taking shot after shot of swirling oil and water mixtures to get some amazing varied results.
All it takes is a shallow glass bowl, some oil, water and a colourful backdrop. Using the Adaptalux Studio and our Colour Filters, we were able to change the colours and gradients behind the oil with ease, getting hundreds of unique shots really quickly.
If you are looking for a new macro subject to try out, definitely give this a go. The colourful abstract shots can make for some great desktop backgrounds. If you're into video, the motion of the water is really pleasing to capture if you have the right lighting.

Looking up she saw it, in all it's metal beauty. A glow in the sky and.......we have lift off.................🚀
After a bit of practicing with this photo tank I built, this large larval Pseudotriton ruber vioscai made for an awesome subject to try my hand at this style of photo. I found this animal in a small sandy/muddy seepage in southeast Louisiana under a piece of wood. The spot patterning is very similar to the adults at this stage but they lack the red namesake. Biphasic plethodontids like these have external gills that really make for a cool photo, until now I had not been able to capture them properly. This closeup highlights some of these features of young amphibians often not seen.
In fact there were six green bottles, however they were not hanging on the wall and none of them fell. But only one green bottle was able to be photographed, so the other five were left on the shelf.
I've had this little spiral for about 10 years. It came with a plastic drink bottle that was a promotional gift with some protein powder I ordered.
I have never known how to use it, so today it had its first outing............ as a photography prop.
Everyone has coins lying around at home (less so as we all move towards paying with plastic!). We have something special though, you can check it out in this week's video here - youtu.be/DHB8ZojzTWE
You may notice that this is not your average one cent coin. In fact, we went shopping at fellow kickstarter creator Chris Ovdiyenko's store Dead on Paper. We grabbed two different "Hobo coins" to experiment with including the "Davy Jones Locker" that you see here.
Using the Adaptalux Studio, we were able to get an accurate shot of the coin before experimenting with coloured Lighting Arms to add highlights. Picking out the details of the design can sometimes be an interesting lighting challenge, so we made use of diffusers and direct light in the various shots we took.
For the reflective surface, we used an iPad! The screen actually offers a great shooting surface if you want a reflection of the subject, and the iPad is just the right size for a subject like this. If you don't have a tablet lying around, some perspex will work too!
We have more details about the shoot, including more pics, on our blog here - bit.ly/AdaptaluxCoins
