I went out into the garden today on safari in search of some Collembola (springtails). Here are the ones I bagged today

All shot using my Oly E-M1 Sigma 105 f2.8 25mm extension tube and raynox DCR 250 and Nissin Di40 flash and pringles diffuser.

I also found this on the laurel hedge which I cannot tell if it is a Thrip or a barkfly
