1. Is this some type of robber fly?

2. Focus stack of a very small spider. Merged from two pictures:

3. I would love this shot... if I had gotten the **** eye in focus. The colors are really neat, but I missed the focus pretty badly. Still, I thought I'd post it:

4. An ant. 1680x1050 wallpaper sized:

5. Same ant, different pose. Look at the cool texturing on the abdomen:

Wonderful series Chris,
great detail on the ant- how big was that guy ?

Think the fly photo is excellent even if it doesn't have clear detail of the eye- we do tend to get hung up on eye detail don't we :)
