  1. Nice! Do you just have criters just hanging around waiting in line for picture day or what? Posted 7 years ago, modified 7 years ago
    1. Pretty much yes ;-P ... hundreds of species still lingering on my hard disk I'm afraid.
      Though this one was sent to me only a few months ago by a friend from Germany as we don't have this species in NL. There was no way this one would sit still for even half a second, so all images are crap. This is the best out of three attempted photo sessions, so I wasn't too eager to display it :-/

      1. I understand quality. I had to take mine while hunting with a 400mm long lens when I stumbled on mine. Not the best macro lens :-} Posted 7 years ago
