Valentine's Day presents

[LordV]

The wife bought me a new Phalaenopsis orchid for Valentine's day (might seem the wrong way round but I did get her some roses). It was obviously a macro shooters 2 for 1 offer as it came with an earwig :).
The earwig seemed to get stuck on S during a reading exercise.

Earwigs never stay still, good shots.

Thanks for the comments all :)

Toby - this earwig did stay still for about 45 secs - think it tired itself out running around under the glass I trapped in - it soon recovered and made a bolt for freedom though :)

Love the rose...or is it actually a thinly sliced and curled up carrot? ;):)
