Hi folks,

Not been much about to shoot lately but managed to get a few decent shots:

Ladybird and Aphid playing "Hide n Seek" - the aphid won!

This hoverfly wasn't so lucky...

Young wolf spider - lots of these around at the moment, slight crop from a 1:1 shot.

Finally, a Silver Y moth - I had to trim away some leaves to get a clear shot of this little beasty.

you might want to put a moth warning further up for those people that don't like moths.

Nasty spider ate the ladybird :(

As always your shots inspire me but that first one is outstanding.

I really like the moth. Not only is it beautifully done but it doesn't make my skin crawl (always a bonus).

Absolutely incredible shots. So much detail in all of them and you've really thought about the composure. :thumbs:

Fantastic shots, particularly like the last 3.
Definately inspired me to reach for my macro!
