Some particularly brutish looking flies are starting to appear now that spring is in the air. Yet even these things are incredible when viewed up close.
Not sure on ID for this one it looks like the Greater or Rough Hawkbit the flower is a beautiful Orange colour but the fornamed is yellow so unsure. Could someone please confirm.

An Australian Emperor Dragonfly (Hemianax papuensis) up close. They are also known as "Yellow Emperors".
These are large and very territorial; they can often be seen scrapping over their plot, chasing away any intruder that dares to cross its path. There was a light shower that day, hence the little droplets on its face.

Here is the same little orb weaver (Araneidae sp.) from the front. He was a bit agitated with the attention I was giving and swayed about, grabbed a tuft of web in his chops and disappeared shortly after I took this.
A Dragonfly (Anisoptera sp.) up close and personal. I am not really familiar with the variety of these and so can't quite pick the exact one it is, but I liked that rainbowie eye.
A most accommodating subject. I guess spring is here!
The world can be an amazing place with 100mm of macro lens at f2.8.
More shallow DoF fun with a spiders web in my garden.

Macro Photography ~
Wikipedia
Macro photography (or photomacrography or macrography, and sometimes macrophotography), invented by Fritz Goro, is extreme close-up photography, usually of very small subjects, in which the size of the subject in the photograph is greater than life size (though macrophotography technically refers to the art of making very large photographs). By some definitions, a macro photograph is one in which the size of the subject on the negative or image sensor is life size or greater. However in other uses it refers to a finished photograph of a subject at greater than life size.
The ratio of the subject size on the film plane (or sensor plane) to the actual subject size is known as the reproduction ratio. Likewise, a macro lens is classically a lens capable of reproduction ratios greater than 1:1, although it often refers to any lens with a large reproduction ratio, despite rarely exceeding 1:1.
Apart from technical photography and film-based processes, where the size of the image on the negative or image sensor is the subject of discussion, the finished print or on-screen image more commonly lends a photograph its macro status. For example, when producing a 6×4 inch (15×10 cm) print using 135 format film or sensor, a life-size result is possible with a lens having only a 1:4 reproduction ratio.
Reproduction ratios much greater than 1:1 are considered to be photomicrography, often achieved with digital microscope (photomicrography should not be confused with microphotography, the art of making very small photographs, such as for microforms).
Due to advances in sensor technology, today’s small-sensor digital cameras can rival the macro capabilities of a DSLR with a “true” macro lens, despite having a lower reproduction ratio, making macro photography more widely accessible at a lower cost. In the digital age, a "true" macro photograph can be more practically defined as a photograph with a vertical subject height of 24 mm or less.
Hoverfly. I found this tiny chap gorging at the bottom of a crocus. Being somewhat less than 1/10th", no more than 2mm, in length and covered in pollen, I at first thought this was a speck of dust moving in the breeze.

A Tachinid fly posing in a dainty fashion. Although quite pretty to look at they do commit some ghastly habits, not least laying their eggs within the body of a living larvae of another insect.
A parasite with not a lot of savig graces
Another dragonfly (Anisoptera sp.) ..... the place is swarming with them at the moment!
This one is perched on my finger and glowering at me in what looks like a disapproving fashion.
Funny little things!

Another shot of that pesky Small Yellow Robber Fly (Asilidae Dolopus) which came visiting last week. I haven't seen it again.
That's a strange view looking straight on from this angle, with his 'Martian antennae' and what looks like a big goofy smile. Don't be fooled - these things are lethal killers.
A view of it's engine room side on is in the first comment field.

~butterfly ID PLEASE ! ~ its one of the biggest butterflies .

Well, I'm not familiar with this species, but it's most likely to be a moth. MOST moth antennae are 'fuzzy' or 'feathery', but not all of them. The feathery antennae are used to literally sniff the air for pheromones. One thing that separates butterfly antennae is that all butterflies have a distinctive swelling or 'club' at the tip of the antennae, and I don't see any on this animal. Also butterflies tend to rest with their wings folded together, but not always.
Mike.
( thanks Mike!)

This is what I was looking at through my camera when I went to shoot this beautiful "Rembrandt Magic" iris... Straight out of the camera with no post processing.
I was going to crop it, but I thought that the DoF looked pretty cool this way.
I had originally called this "looking for light"; however after reading irishtermom and Kaos2 saying that it was like a kaleidoscope I thought that I'd just run with it... so I changed the title.
Thanks again irishtermom & Kaos2
Thank you all for your views, very kind comments, faves and invitations.
