    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    All natural lighting, the 1st one was shot with a Canon 100 2.8 Macro, the next two were shot with a 70-200 2.8 IS and the last one was captured with my 400 5.6.

    Thanks again

    The male holds on to the female until she finishes laying the eggs that he fertilized -if not another male can mate with her instead. Also the males of some species of dragons have the ability to remove the sperm that another male has deposited...
