Adult female eating a BB fly + L3 nymph I just got from Ismart

 
Nice composition and skill used in getting the both subjects in focus. I'm sure most looking at the photo won't understand how difficult it is to compose macro subjects like this. Good work. :)

 
Yes, that was well done, Yeatzee. Have you ever messed around with a pinhole camera? A really small f stop and huge depth of field. Of course, nowadays, someone could just Pshop in the second image, but you are like Ned Nederlander in [upside down Spanish exclamation mark] Three Amigos!, who never faked a quick draw in his life.

no I haven't Phil.... im entertaining the idea though just for the heck of it :lol:

Oh, and thank you.... I think ;) :D

It wasn't too bad.... its just the fricken ghosts never stop swaying so i had to time it perfectly when both were not moving or when both swayed into the focus plane.

Those boys are growing fast! Nice shot! ;)
They are growing quite rapidly! Do you have any suggestions for keeping them fat? All of mine look anorexic, but I toss more FF's into their communal container (smallest type of kritter keeper) than I do for the 9 gongylus in a net cage !
