Wow too busy to be camera shy !

Marvelous macro shot, the details are amazing.

You find the most unique and interesting subjects to "shoot" with your camera of course Andrea.

Thanks for sharing them.

I expected an image showing they were done and smoking cigarettes but this is just WOW! Every detail is crystal clear. The best bug porn I've ever seen.

You see far more than I even imagine is out there! I'm quite satisfied to spot a chipmunk or a goldfinch!
