...not really a macro shot, but check out the ant biting the wasps back leg & the bee in mid-flight ready to attack the wasp.

Thanks for looking!! I'm planning on getting a 2x converter soon, so that should help me out a bit.

Really great work. The reflection in Bee 6 is awesome. Nice BIF in that last action shot too.

Thanks everyone!

Bas - Thanks! I never saw a stink bug like that before. It was black with this crazy yellow & red design all over it, I thought stink bugs were only light brown...pretty cool looking.

I really need to find a place with better bugs, I just saw my first grasshopper & Ladybug (since I got my camera) a couple days ago.

Ace, shields even change a LOT from one moult (instar) to another.

Here is a British guide, to show the variety

That's crazy! You know, until a couple years ago, I never even heard of them before.

Thanks mando!

Thanks a lot, Bluesy! I'm always skeptical to post here because everyone's shots are so amazing!
