p.1 #1 · Up before dawn...

so I decided to slip by the holistic gardens on the way in to work. One of the benefits of this southerly latitude--other than the oppressive summer heat--is that there is still a fairly diverse bunch of critters about.

#1 Big hopper in the veggie garden(shooting w/52mm tube, so my apologies for cutting some of it off

) http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2605/4093139670_5f8f2c2fa4_b.jpg

#2 Plantbug nymph portrait http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2662/4092375511_3d1e479f40_b.jpg

#3 Lacewing, chrysota oculata http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2689/4093139652_7bbbb774f3_b.jpg

#4 Monarch larva posterior http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2766/4092375555_c37e00a190_b.jpg

Thanks for looking,
Kenny

Nice shots, Kenny. #3 is great (but it would have been nice if you could've captured the rest of his antennae.).

Agreed, but shooting as much extension as I am, everything just wouldn't fit, sorry to say.

Thanks Matt. I was struck by how much more 'interesting' the backend is than the frontend.
