When one shoots macro on a consistent basis the eyes and brain become very good at spotting insects. I know my eyes are much more attuned and sharp then before I started shooting macro.

Speaking of eyes very nice patterns in photo 1 and 3. Focus needs to be spot on to get defined whirls like that. Well done.

Thanks. I think you are right about getting better at spotting. I can find jumpers a lot easier now than when I first started. And I am trying very hard to focus on the eyes.

I like the last one, too. In fact, I took a few pics of what seems to be the EXACT same species here in Georgia a few days ago. But I have no idea what it is.

I THINK it's a little wasp of some kind. Beyond that, I'm lost.

Nice pic, though. Love the eyes.

The eyes sure give that impression. There's just something........ waspy looking about it....... I'd love to know what it is.

A face on pic would be great. But I didn't have a chance to get one from that angle either.
Bummer.
