First time I've seen a froghopper. With looks like that I doubt he gets laid much. Outstanding set.

That's a superb set Alf. Super clarity and detail. #2 is absolute magic - so much in focus! The snail is delightful.

Thanks Nick
The harvestman shot I have now been informed that they are a male (distant) and female Leiobunum rotundum. I am now miffed that I did not know this and didnt hang around for some courtship.
