Wow, Ariel, this is amazing! The detail and the light highlighting his head is terrific. #599454

Thank you, Colleen! I can thank Hector Niam for this and similar pictures, you know. His guide really helped me learn about insect photo composition, and to use flash in order to bring out the highlights. I was also using the HOYA macro add-on lens he suggests. #3909240

James C. Messervy February 03, 2007

Absoultely sensational shot Ariel! This is one of the best insect shots I've seen in a long while. I hope it's a winner, it certainly deserves to be. #3909274

Great shot, Ariel, I have a canon diopter that I haven't really experimented too much with. This will convince me to try it! #3915686
