Very interesting.Never seen these before though have been bitten by the mozzy plenty times. I am told it is only the female that bites.

They certainly lay enough to keep us scratching Alby. Nicely detailed. Where were these taken?

I hope you destroyed them after you'd taken pics!

Humans or Mozzies?

Nice and sharp and detailed Alby, They remind me of a rubber sweeping brush.

[MrEd]

thats bloody amazing! this is why i like macrophotos - you get to see things you never knew about before!

 

[crusher]

Nicely done mate........I've never seen these before either

The water looks very clean........scooped out of your pond into a clean container perhaps?

 

[babytiger]

wow thats amazing, never ever seen them before and agree with Mr Ed without macrophotography we'd never see the ikes of this

Thanks folks, I scooped them out of my water feature and into a jam jar lid with a white base so to make photographing them easier but to be honest it was just as easy to shoot them in the water feature.
