I was sitting in my summer room today making a new diffuser, and the sun was out so i thought you never know a few hardy insects might be sunbathing. I went outside and it was beautiful the sun was not showing it's usual winter harsh white light it was a warm glow almost a green tint. To my surprise i was finding subjects everywhere i looked, and never had to venture more than 12 feet from my house.
My first ever Ant pics. I have never come across one that has stayed still long enough for me. It would run off after each flash but came straight back.
These wont win any awards but i am happy i have an ant ticked off my list.

My first Ant. by T0P cat, on Flickr
Next up and only two feet away from the ant i found my first Globbies. They were almost glowing in the bright sunshine and like when i found my first jumping spider i got so excited when the first one came into focus. I got so lucky with these, they were right on top of my Son's toy shed about 4-5 foot high. god knows what they were doing up there but it meant i had easy access and could rest my camera down.
This first shot is not cropped. Obviously all the others are heavily cropped, the quality has dropped a bit but i am not bothered. It is what it is.
This 100mm with all three extension tubes.
