Do ya think it is possible he is the only member in the club? LOL

Also, as far as the photo goes...did you notice the lone piece of hay sticking out of his mouth?

How great for you misspix! I love camping. Do you tent camp or camper camp or motorcoach camp? [Sigh]

I was a proud tent camper until a couple years ago when my back said no more of this! Now we are in a camp trailer, however we don't camp in campgrounds, we find a mountain and then find a cubby hole. It's great, nice and quiet:D

Ahem... I am not the only member. Just the only member with my membership in my sig ;).

Springtails are litle tiny bugs that we like to shoot in the macro forum. They look like this:

IMAGE: http://static.flickr.com/46/144727348_625648f563_o.jpg

As for size, they are less than half a millimeter, so they are somewhat difficult to find. The above shot was taken at about 3:1 (one of my first reversed lens macros).

Indiana. It's so amazingly boring that 19 year-olds like me take up macro photography ;).

AirB, I got into SLR photography in my early 20's. At that time it was not anywhere near as common as it is becoming with the advent of digital SLR's. It's good to see. My 16 yo son is starting to show an interest, and quite a certain flair too (he is just plain weird at times.....lol).

I'm here again....that is, if anyone feels like playing it out. Otherwise someone else can just start a new macro game.

No way you are going to post something that we have no idea about what it is, then duck out.:D

My only thought was the speake on a phone but that was guessed and was wrong. Maybe a wee hint.;)

A vent on an appliance maybe?

yeah you don't give up, you give hints. The unwashed masses need to know. :)

Maybe posting a slightly wider view?
