I have been having some problems with a new PC, things that had worked for years suddenly stopped working and the system now seems prone to stopping dead, so there is a conflict somewhere, but I suppose who am I too complain that is what they call progress - back to some more pics, it was a grand shoot, I did not expect to enjoy it quite so much, getting unrestricted access was just awesome and I could get as close as I wanted!!!  2 Now this was close - but then again it was really rather big - Madagascan Dumeril’s Boa  3 - he even made the grass look small  4 - not sure what this was, but it had an interesting jaw arrangement...  5 same snake, side view  6 not sure how this one missed the first cut Bearded Dragon  7 Amazing colours and character  8 But of all the reptiles thsi was possibly my favourite, great character and almost expressions, totally fearless and just posed... Crested Gecko  John Baker

Thanks for the answer on that one, that was the name which was mentioned but it slipped my mind - A couple more...  Indian Sand Boa - this was really strange and totally different...  I think this one was a Corn Snake  Final one, Emperor Scorpion - reminded me of a lobster, very weird up close!!!  John Baker

G11; it was windy today, so interesting result. I used AF Tracking and the bug stayed fairly sharp, while the flower got blurred. The insect is about the size of medium ant.  IMG_0542DPPRS by dhc42, on Flickr Dennis

I hope you had a little glass between you and those critters (other than your lens 
). Nice job at mixing it up a bit... Oh Great One! Really love #5 and #6.
