Paul: Thanks for pointing out your article: excellent stuff. I do indeed from time to time use masking tape and tissues or paper towels for diffusio...

A fly
http://www.math.auckland.ac.nz/~hafner/macro/fly3.jpg I wanted to shoot ants on my dining room floor - of course I realise that I can't compete with some of you on that subject matter, but sooner or later I will tell you about my ants... Anyway, just as I was ready to throw in the towel, a fly land...

Strange things can happen on the way to shoot birds, Sue! But good on you for recognising an opportunity and letting yourself be distracted from your original intentions.

I am all for flowers, and this is a beautiful red indeed! I really like the velvety parts of the petals, and the subtle veins. There is a bit too much shade (for my liking) in a dominant part of the frame, though. And maybe you could have captured more oomph by incorporating the centre of the flower...

Congratulations Sue, this is a beautiful image and a wonderful welcome on the front page! Danny, don't you y'all have some lizards in NZ? Not as colorful as ours, I'm sure, :P but they must have their charms, eh? Well, here is (part of) a lizard from down under: http://www.math.auckland.ac.nz/~hafne...

These insects sit quietly on leaves, in colonies, and often with some empty shed skins of earlier instars still attache...
