Here are some more collembola I found recently:

This one was found on a particularly cold day in the valley. Single image, 7X Magnification, slight crop:
Ceratophysella sp. by Tim.Garlick, on Flickr

This was from the same trip to the valley, 4 images much lower magnification:
Tomocerus minor by Tim.Garlick, on Flickr

And this was from my back garden. 8 images at 8.6X manification (really pleased to find this one, it was tiny and a new species for me and my garden):
Sminthurinus niger by Tim.Garlick, on Flickr

I was lucky to be able to stack this one. Although it stayed in the same spot (it was stuck on a spider's web) it was thrashing about quite a lot:

Eventually I prodded it with a small piece of grass to help it get free.

New species for you awesome. Nice capture not so nice of you to put it in a Spiders Web.

Gif is great were they all the stack shots Put together?

Shame t minor had its head down.

Three really nice images Timmy, with some good composition and detail.

As for the Gif, I saw it on flickr and thought that's "Brilliant", but don't even think about getting me started on that as well, at least not just yet. I've got more than enough on my plate at the moment to contend with.

George.

Thanks mate. I use zerene stacker to process (I rely on the retouching tool it offers).

Amazing Gif

Thanks John

Cheers Bryn, sorry read back what I had written and it may have been misleading. The previous image is a stack, the gif was just made from the different frames I captured whilst it was thrashing about , so only single shots. And it ran into the spider's web all by itself! Honest

Yeah they always have their heads down. I was just happy to find one that kept still...

Thanks George. The gif was easy enough to do, I just followed this guide:

The most difficult bit was doing the dust removal from all the frames!

[coopers]

Cracking shots but feeling quite sorry for the poor fella in the giff as he tries to pull away from the web. especially when he looks down at his leg.....blimey I must be getting emotional....
