It's shots like this that really make macro photography fun. It was a hard shot to get, not to mention many captures, but in the end.. it's all worth it! When I arrived at the park, I noticed that 90% of the flowers were dead, but I still found a few strange and interesting insects to photograph! (more coming soon)
BTW, if you happen to know the ID of this inesct, please let me know, thanks!
One last thing I'd thought I'd mention and I'm such a nerd for saying it, but do you remember the insect that Khan used and put in Chekov's ear in Star Trek II: The wrath of Khan? This little guy resembles the one in the movie, creepy!!!
Camera: Sony Alpha A700 DSLR
