These tiny ones are almost invisible before PP
2 more the first not so small but I couldn't guess what it was before PP. A family moment in nature

and the 2nd the red color was the only thing I noticed (unfortunately not close enough to guess even after PP)

and 2 almost night shots

Great lighting control. The second images with the little red ones is a parasites mites that feast on the body of other insects...

Great capture.

Will try to do a write up this week end have never tried to do one. Supposed to be raining here again so no shooting for me. So far it has been a lot of trial and error got hooked on macro from this site and it has been a long learning experience that is never ending.

Looking forward to your write up as well. Your images are stellar.

Must have been a tight fit in the old exoskeleton.

All your insect shots are absolutely stunning! I guess you use macro flash? Honestly, your photo series are the best insect shots I have ever seen.
