It was still very fast though.<br />I have been looking at insect macros and I am sure that many must be dead. The backgrounds and the focus is just too good for them to be dashing around as mine do. The bee was not fast but was just too large to fit it in at 1:1. The little thing was like lightning, dread to think what it could achieve with a full complement of legs.<br />Scottish farmers are a dour lot. I'll have to ask the one next door to save me some creepy crawlies.<br />ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-61281504630542865322015-04-14T06:55:36.919+01:002015-04-14T06:55:36.919+01:00Good to see that you're carrying on with the t...Good to see that you're carrying on with the theme Adrian...last time it was a sozzled beetle(!) now it's a legless specimen!<br />Super images once again, it's an amazing 'tiny' world out there<br />Just been reading up on Symphylids, it seems that they're not the Scottish spud producers best friend!! ...[;o)<br />The Heraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11393815486440597141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-18083801129680662472015-04-14T05:23:19.039+01:002015-04-14T05:23:19.039+01:00Red, tic infestation is common on bees.

Stacked images are next best but I suspect the insect is killed for those. I don't agree with that though it would be good to find a dead one.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-64402930217571009112015-04-14T05:17:03.223+01:002015-04-14T05:17:03.223+01:00Mersad, I have a long way to go but I am getting b...Mersad, I have a long way to go but I am getting better at it.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-27682566639937205622015-04-14T05:13:53.111+01:002015-04-14T05:13:53.111+01:00Thanks Adam.
