Morris County, New Jersey

Handheld shot with the Tamron SP 90mm VC Macro Lens + Canon 7D. 1/125 F/10 ISO 200, natural light, no crop.

I know we have a lot of bug fans in this forum, so thought I would share this one.

Nice one, Dave. I find it quite fascinating how huge the captives are for a lot of insects.

I hate to steal the thunder away from my own photo.... but here is a photo taken by a contact of mine in New Jersey. A Stinkbug that ensnared an adult Clubtail dragonfly!!!

Thanks Natuur, Travis, and Denis!

I shoot more butterflies and dragonflies than I do "true bugs", but this was too good to pass up.
