Lovely series - esp like the harvestman- can't work out if it's eating something or has an amazing set of palps/fangs.

I was wondering about the Harvestman too. Hopper is a Rhododendron Leafhopper. Nice set.

Great capture of crane fly and harvestman as these are difficult to photograph aesthetically.
