That four line guy looks rather grandfatherly...   deceptively cute.
                common snipe fly - now an undersea creature

I'm guessing grandfather met an early demise

Thanks, Darren! I am slowly working towards higher magnifications. The Plant Bug was only about 5 mm from head to toe, so getting the up close portrait took a lot of magnification. I tried a reverse mounted A 28mm f2.8 and also a XR Rikenon 28mm f2.8, but neither were sharp enough. SO I went with the DFA 50mm macro on a whole lot of extension. I have a 24mm f3.5 on the way and hole it will give me what I need to get into even higher magnifications.

Good lord! Is it my imagination, or do your macro's magnification keep
inching up? Amazing!
