A tiny Assassin hiding in Queen Anne's Laceby bbower1956Comment by bbower1956: Originally posted by MaryO:
I don't think I've ever photographed one from above. I always go for the side view, for some reason. Maybe 'cuz the curve in the tail makes the bug look very oddly formed from this perspective. But that's OK; it's an Assassin Bug, and they're weird-looking from any angle. Nice macro :-) |
This was taken straight on at him. Those are his front legs. He would fit on your pinky nail. |

With insects, and tiny ones at that, you can't really get them to cooperate and pose where you want them to for as long as you would like. |
Yep, I have photographed bugs for 30+ years and know all too well how they don't take direction! Message edited by author 2018-08-11 16:32:22. |

Hoverfly on Chicoryby bbower1956Comment by HarveyG: I really struggled voting on this image. Whilst the sharpness, light and colours were exceptional I found the one out of focus stamen over the hoverfly's eye distracting. Well done on the HM. |
