Just checking surface tension.
I was amazed to see the ladybug claw holding on to water surface but now drowning into it.
May be its caused by the leaf's water resistance that the water formed such shape that the bug could "stand" by holding it! Any science guys able to explain it?

Just checking surface tension

This is one of more difficult images to stack... (3 shots stacked). The bee moved its legs and also its body position slightly, so stacking was tad difficult, but eye texture and drop on the wings were both too tempting to leave out of the image.

Climbing Down
Some people have asked me how I create a black background on the field.. I don't, the flash does.
In this picture, since the closest leaf / tree from the grass blade did not get sufficient light from the flash, its fully black.
When you are at f/22, ISO 100, 1/200s, if the flash does not fire you get a black frame, and if the light falls only on the subject you get perfect subject isolation.

Butterfly.. Cute? no way!
OK.. this is the closest i have been to a live butterfly.. and they are anything but cute from this angle and this close! (Almost no crop on this one).

for some reason, i see a human face in the bokeh... do you? (our brains are "programmed" to see human faces in abstract things)
