If I were ever asked if I had a photography addiction, I would first laugh, and than laugh some more, and than say duh of course. What a silly question, and even silly-er when the answer is so freakin' obvious. :XD:

I doubled my macro lenses and shot this in-between heart beats to nail this little sucker. The actual focus is not 33mm, because that would make this a humungous aphid.
The focal length is around about 225mm or 250mm ...give or take a couple mm's. I wanted to see how close I could get with my lens set up.

I USED THESE ACTIONS TO IMPROVE THE LIGHTING AND COLOURS:

Action #10 by :iconlieveheersbeestje:

Action number ten does the trick for me practically every single time.



I hope you like it.
Thank you for the views, faves, and comments.:heart:

I love bugs. They're so very interesting! They're unlike any creature I have ever seen on the planet. I love them! One time, there was a spider, a really big one, right outside my window and he lived there and I named him Banana Bob. He lived there for two years!

Whoa that's a pretty long life span for an arachnid.
And also a very cute and cool name to for a cute creepy crawly. :D

I use to collect black windows in a fish tank but my Dad told me
they would all get out and eventually kill me.

I told him maybe ...but not all at one time. :laughing:

haha! that's awesome! my friend told me in his old house, a poisonous spider lived there and whenever he tried to kill it it would run to the other end of the room, so he just moved out. XD

LOL!!! Oh you're so cute. :blush:
It's an aphid, you know those little tinny tiny bugs that are on the underside of flowers.
Especially wild flowers or unkempt flowers in a garden, around the stem on roses or some other flowers.

And thank you too. :blowkiss:

Yep they are fascinating, and sometimes they eat or get eaten by Ladybugs.
It's interesting, entertaining, and educational. :XD:
Thank you once more Megan. :hug:
