#2 from this position it might look like the hover is the predator.

#3 this position tells the truth

#4 a dust mite? these are very hard to get a good focus on, so small, and hard to get something to focus on.

#5 another mite of some sort?Its ontop of a larvae of some sort.

I use a reversed 18-55, set at approx 30mm, I only have the on camera flash so any more zoom and the light from the flash cant reach the subject due to the focal point being too close to the lens.

Thanks for the ID correction RM, your id makes sense since I usually find assassin bugs in the house...(we have an Old farm house)

Hi Trevor,
I see you're shooting those critters again. I don't know how you keep so steady to get such clear focus on them. Boy, you're doing it right what ever it is. Those are great shots.
Tell me, how do you even SEE a dust mite?
