Very good series! Love macro of insects. Well done!

Macro is very nice! You should take a look at flowers, too! They're gorgeous!

I shoot only something that can move - people, animals and now insects. Flowers, landscapes, still lifes - those are not my passions

You mean flowers never move? I feel that quite differently looking through a macro lens! Especially when there's some wind!
