The Hitchhiker returns! A slightly different angle this time!
The fly was crawling on the lower cuff of my jeans (I rotated the image for a better effect). Lens used : Tamron 90mm f2.8 macro. Fantastic lens. Camera used : Pentax K10D. (Fantastic camera too!)
I made this for a group on flickr.. the exposure was already pretty dark so I just enhanced it and ran with it.. this was the result :)
A garden visitor sits in the shade of the afternoon sun … hes an attractive wee character … I like him ;-)
This hoverfly kept coming back for Happy Hour refills!
ok.. I took this picture and everything was fine. but when I took my eye from the camera after shooting the ant was gone.. Hmmm. Not sure but I think the flygothim. Unless the ant ran real quick. Not sure
This was taken with a Nikon Coolpix point and shoot camera. Shutter speed was 1/100 sec. It was set on close-up, Aperture F/3.3, ISO 50, 35MM FOCAL LENGTH WAS 41. These little guys keep all of us fed. Without them there would be a great fathom. This shot is as is.

...Crane Fly
This little guy was most annoyed at me chasing after him to take photos of him. He kept flying away and was clearly unimpressed that I kept following him. He was tiny, maybe half the size of an ordinary house fly, a couple of mm long perhaps, so I love that I got even this close given his reluctance to embrace fame and fortune as New Zealand’s Next Top Model! Canon Powershot A480 point-and-shoot, North Island of New Zealand.
