The unidentified tiny fly is awesome as is the last one. They all have wonderful detail and are so sharp. Bugs are not my thing but I like these very much.

Thanks Dave, once I'm home a few days I usually spend some time looking around the backyard, there is always something going on.

Take care.

Thanks charlie, just get the tubes, the auto ones are hard to find but not impossible. They do make a huge difference.

Take care,

Ah Jer, what praise but thank you. If I'd be 20 years younger I'd probably pursue something in the way of publishing something but at this point I can't be bothered.

Take care.

bluestringer · 07-19-2012, 03:29 PM

Fantastic. Love them all. They inspire me to do better.

Rupert · 07-19-2012, 06:23 PM

Heinrich, those are fantastic, in particular I love the fly on the white background, it is superb!

Regards!
