Same shot that I posted in the sharpen contest, but this one was acutally sharp to begin with. Liked how it turned out, wish his little wing wasn't out like that though.

They're all fine shots Revert, the spider looks like a Wolf spider to my eyes on quick glance, but it could be a few other similar looking species as well. The fly is very sharp, pity the right wing is slight cut off :( The two other bugs look very interesting, any idea what they are?

Thanks!! Yeah I'm not too sure what they are. I thought they were just daddy long legs, however they seem like thier bodies are way larger. So I could very well be wrong. If you haven't noticed I am terrible at I.D.ing anything.

I think Daddy Long Legs is the name for several different bugs/spiders. It certainly applies to yours :) Harvestman would be my (totally uneducated) guess as well.

The fly has very beautiful eyes, they appear so glossy. NIce!
