Yes I guess it was, I'm use to dealing with shallow DOF ranges now Mitch it's landscapes I find scary with all that dof at f32 :LOL:
 
Very nice Alby. What macro lens did you use to get these?

What are the little guys anyway (aside from being insects that is)?

Thanks for looking ;) the insects are springtails ( Dicyrtomina saundersi) tiny creature that can be found everywhere at the moment if you look hard enough. Look on any damp woodern surface and you may see some small specks walking about and these will be one of the species of springtail.
 
Just ace, again(y)(y)(y)(y)
 
Hi Alby wonderful shots really like the first one especially even though its a bit further away as it shows the surroundings too

I found a few of these little things on a leaf the other day but every one was arse end on to the camera....not their best profile!
