Yep Crane flies. They'll be about in droves shortly.

Best macro shots you've taken I reckon Tim! I find the 180L Macro imposes quite a bit of discipline in it's use, but the results are knockout. :thumbs:

And I reckon you are correct CT. But in fairness the little blighters just sat posing for me this morning just as though they were enjoying the celeb status..:D

Thanks for the kind comments.:thumbs:

Crane Flies are a good test actually, they'll sit there for ages. :)

In daylight they seem to just shut down all systems and park up. Great for anyone to test their macro lens on.

Well done Tim, some awsome detail youve captured there :thumbs:
Thanks to your images, next time I get another one of those pesky Crane flies caught up in my hair ... I'll be able to imagine exactly what its freaky little face looks like. Ewww!
