There are quite a few Crane Flies appearing at the moment, later in the year than I normally see them though different types do appear at different times of the year.

Let Me In
A Crane Fly - Daddy Long Legs - waited patiently on the outside of the front door giving plenty of time to set up the 350D with bellows to catch a series of shots of its underside. Nine photos of varying focus points were processed by CombineZP to make one stacked picture.

Now that is an amazing Macro John.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice, Roy, to get to see the underside sometimes. Such large eyes on a tiny head, not exactly much room for a brain ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, that's close!
ReplyDeleteAgree with Roy; amazing macro John.
An incredible shot, John and a most unusual one too. I remember when I was at school and we started the new term in early September, the outside walls of the school were always covered in Crane Flies, I have never seen so many in one place since.
ReplyDeleteThank you Keith. I was lucky it stayed still for quite a while. The lens was about an inch away though on the opposite side of the glass.
ReplyDeleteHi Jan. Its funny they way they appear seemingly by the hundred some years and just a few individuals other times.
ReplyDeleteIncredible detail John from an unusual angle.
ReplyDeleteI like to see things from different viewpoints Frank. Insects look so different from underneath.
