We have been missing your great macro....and you too I of course.
Are you back for awhile? or just popping in like Tim (Hangman) does?

Nice! I like #3 particularly. Isn't this a trashbug or brown lacewing? Family Hemerobiidae rather than Chrysopidae. Picky Picky Picky! Used to have them hitchhiking on me in Florida a lot.

Very nice as usual, Tom. One thing I notice about your work - there never seems to be a 'hot spot' on your subject. Nothing ever seems to get burned out, not even a TINY spot. I'm in awe of this, because even in my best efforts, there is often a tiny 'hot spot' that's been over illuminated.

You've got a secret. Will you share? :-)
By the way, these are some of the best photos of a 'traveling trash pile' that I've ever seen.
