POTN G-series Speed Challenge #176 - What Bugs You?

Some very good shots and follow-ups this week. I've been having a blast with these Ghost Mantids. I'll be taking them outside soon to photograph with the 5D & 100mm macro, but these were G7 shots:

I was wondering what all those teeny little empty bottles were from!! Now I know! Thanks

Wow, great shots people and congratulations to the winners!

I've been too busy with exams to take many photos recently but here are a few i'd like to share with you

All taken with my G9

A dead bee *sniff*

Tommy,
That fly is a winner. Awesome photo. I won't be trying to enjoy my lunch looking at that photo. Wow!

great shots Tommy


but methinks that bumble was just playing dead while you took the photo
looks nice and fluffy. hope we all look as good when deceased
lol

I think thats a Green Shield Bug (Palomena prasina) in your second last shot ...... shot under difficult circumstances (one free hand) terrific and eek ... the fly !
