If you are curious, it's a Green Treefrog, Hyla cinerea (like my avatar)..Not endangered & a good subject. You should have caught it & taken more images of it...

Around my porch light at night I may see 12 or more waiting to catch a free meal. Have lots & lots photos

Horse Fly

A few suggestions from someone who is far from accomplished with macro:
Less of the underside of the fly, in others words, try to get more level with the fly
A little more exposure-- looks a tad under-exposed
On #2 bracts are the point of focus, go more for the fly. As Nikonian72 suggests, use the smallest degree of autofocus, press shutter half way to lock focus and re-compose and fire-- all of this before he flies away.

Thanks for the info.I shot in manual .Had about 1 sec time

More jumping spiders

Nikonian72 wrote:

This is an immature Bold Jumper (Phidippus audax) per the orange spots. Adult spots are white. The chelicerae are characteristic iridescent green or blue. The abdominal shape and larger pedipalps suggest this may be a male.

Thanks for the info.
