      Thanks y'all :o) I afraid I clearly didn't put in quite enough effort with this one (pressed for time) - only got some 20 shots in and this one was the "best" in focus. Should be able to get it a little better still, but will need to find it again first *rolleyes* Posted 5 years ago

        Really not seeing much wrong with it, to speak in your words: don't sell yourself short ;) Posted 5 years ago

  Lots of weevils do that to you - being crazy small. One that I see here quite a lot is 4Nanophyes marmoratus (1.5-2.1mm) but I rarely decide to "go for" another series of shots as my fingers will start to cramp halfway through ;o) Posted 5 years ago
