Weekend Macros

silvio000

Just sharing some random macros i did during the weekend. After so many months of rain, we finnaly are getting some good weather and there's a lot of little creatures that start to wake up :-)

#1 - A spider that i think is missing a leg.


#2 - need help with naming this one


#3 - just another fly


#4 - a snail


#5 - this one i like the colors, but the ant should be in better focus :-(

We got rains here in SF last couple of weeks saw some of the snails and they looked dull....how wrong I was!:cry

Good series - glad you got out to start some shooting, also started to see more sunshine instead of rain in the UK.
Technically #1 is a harvestman- an opioline not a spider but related. Suspect #2 is a stonefly but not sure.

What would this forum be without the knowledge of Brian V. :-)
Thank you for the info Brian, hope the sun in the UK brings you the same ammount of joy that i am getting here. What a difference it makes.
Regards,
Silvio

Thanks Gatto, i am also in a mix feeling about #5, i like the colours but it frustates me that the ant is poorly focused. I guess you are right, i shouldn't have posted it.

Silvio I know exactly how you feel, I have Hard Drives full of those shoots, that's part of the learning curve, macro is hard, those little buggers don't stay still, but that's also why it is so rewarding when we get one right :-)
