Whoa Lester, your lens is scratched!!! JK, the lines must be spiderwebs, right?

Nice barklouse, a bit dark but you could play with Shadows/Highlights to correct that :)

haven't found one of these, I know they are tiny - great detail there.

Lovely shot Leater- little bit dark.
AFAIK the barklice spin the webs that they are often found under-you find family groups under a light webbing on the underside of leaves (ivy is a favourite)

Thnaks folks.

This is the second I have found, the other was a pure white juvenile with litttle stubby wing blobs. Also had the silk web. I seem to have a bush they like.

I set the white point for highlight detail but I'll take a look at the gamma and see if it can be lightened up, the leaf he is on is very dark in real life though.
