Boss photos you've taken

2 in the late night dew: a dead and wet drain fly, and a globular springtail.

If my cat hears the key to the outhouse jingle against the other keys, he always makes a charge for the door to go and and investigate. Today was no different, when I went to see if any of the resident spiders were still hanging around.

As I took these, the cat was below the tripod creating all kinds of havoc - most typically rubbing his head against either my leg, or the tripod legs!

Unfazed, I did find two subjects, a smaller, younger female adult in the corner nearest the door, and a larger one on the small shelf that runs across one wall.

Enjoy.

And now for something completely different!

And yes, this is my eye, and of course the rest is a gerbera flower centre!

The Lunchtime Globby.


Most usually found by night, my globular springtails in the garden have had themselves an afternoon excursion around the lid of the garden waste bin. This one was the nearest one to me - the others were all just as mobile but nearer the centre of the bin and out of range.
All on the 100mm L IS, with 3 extension tubes.

In some of these (#3, #4, and #5) you can see the mouth part has extended downwards as the springtail eats or drinks from the surface.

Haha, that's a funky looking little creature! Like it better than the creepy crawlers you normally post! :p

The second pic is cool :)
 
Love the photos here. I'm no photographer, but my mate Jimmy V. is. I bumped into him today, and thought about this thread. Here's his most well-known photo. He spent a really cold night on the Palm Valley bridge over the Intercoastal getting this one. It was worth it.

Space Shuttle Endeavour STS-130 launches into orbit toward the east, as the stars and waning crescent moon trail toward the west, leaving a beautiful reflection on the Intracoastal Waterway in Ponte Vedra, Florida. This 132-second time exposure of the final night launch of a Space Shuttle, from launch through SRB separation, was taken 115 miles north of Launch Pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center.
