thanks for the replys, I have been a macro addict for a while. before i got my dslr with a crappy p & s. only thing is i wish it could get a bit closer. i was trying to take some rose trichome shots and it was not close enough for my taste.

You can never quite get close enough can you Jay? :)
Very nice and artistic shots. It's a very colorful cranefly. I haven't seen any of those before.
