Nikonian72 encouraged me to post to this section. Most of my shooting has been done during hikes, so I have to deal with wind and changing light. After reading the bug cooling link, I hope to get some captive models in the future.
These were taken with a Nikon D7000 + 40mm macro lens handheld. Sometimes, I use a Sony NEX5 + Canon 50mm macro with or without an extension tube.

Some nice shots!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
image 1 is beautiful. It looks like a pair of hands coming out of the mist or water.
:thumbup:
Not too shabby!
Each image suggests a feeling of texture.
Diggin' the first shot, reminds me of hands clasped for prayer... Dear Lord please let me nail this shot....
These have very nice color, tone and detail. Nice work.
Thanks for the feedback! I look forward to using a tripod for some insect shots this year.

:thumbup: :thumbup: #1 is terrific.

Very nice. I think the flower in the second image might be Oxeye Sunflower (Heliopsis helianthoides).
