I could be wrong on shot 3 but these are small skippers I think, not essex as the antennae are orange. Essex antennae are very pronounced 'dipped in black ink' appearance, but very nice anyway. Shot 3 is my favourite of the set.

Great series. Very colorful and sharp! Your sensor looks very clean even at high magnification. How often do you clean it if I may ask ;) ???

Hardly ever clean the 350D though I did blow a big dust spot off last week. The 20D seems more dust prone but only shows at high mag - maybe clean once every two months if that? No cloning in these shots by the way - as you say clean sensor.

I'm jealous ;)

I got my 5D in April and clean the sensor at least once every three weeks, but there are always noticeable dust specks at 2x or higher. Maybe I change lenses all the time..........I need a 2nd Canon body :rolleyes: :cool:

You have the Nikon D200 ( edged the 30D in review I read today) so that ought to cut down on lens changing. Got any macros taken with it or aren't you allowed to post here??

I haven't really used the Nik*n Combo (D200 + 105VR + R1) that much lately since I got the MPE65. However, below is a few shots that I took with that combo. Don't know if I should post here, so I just post the links ;)
