Very nice!

You've inspired me to try and get closer to my little colony of wasps.

Wow - all my macro mentors are here - Kurt, John, Brian, Troy & Scott! Get Alistair in here and we have a full boat!

Yes, Scott, the MP-E with the MT-24EX and Fong Puffers.

Nice to meet you, too, Shayne, and thanks for the props!

Here's the rest of this morning's series on this rambunctious stingslinger - still trying to ID him, btw.

i am loving those last few shots also. i agree with Troy and Brian, as i have started to try and include full body shots also (though at times larger subjects are hard to shoot...lol)

All I can say is: WOW!!! Those are the types of shots I would love to turn into posters for my son's room.
