Okay, Arthur! You are really too close.
But you did a great job. Do you quite these guys down somehow before you shoot them? (Play on words). Merna

  I just give them enough space so they behave without the threat of danger. The only problem with photographing these guys is that they do not stay still for long

  Excellent macro, Arthur! Beautiful colors and details! They are very fast and busy creatures, so it is amazing you could capture them this well!
