I don't do a lot of macro stuff. Every time I do, I am once again impressed with all of your talents and hard work. You guys are nuts!

Anyway, here are some recent shots. The ants were taken yesterday as they climbed up and down a tree. The Lacewing larvae is from earlier this summer, and I thought I would throw those in here too. Notice the last shot: You can see the remnants of a dead creature in his "fluff ball".

Very nice captures. I really like number 2 and the last one. It looks like there might even be more than one molt up there on top!

Very interesting shots and I particularly like the 1970s-like afro perm on the lacewing larvae

Thanks, everyone. Yes, the lacewing larvae is pretty interesting. It was crawling on the railing outside my house. I looked down and saw the little furball moving and ran and got my camera. I had no idea what it was. It took some serious go googling to finally figure it out.
