(as sung to my new camera)

Even though it's very similar to my old camera, it's still different. A little more sensitive, perhaps. Or maybe I still have to find the best settings for my point-and-shoot bug macros. But I'm finding my way. Here are some of my better shots from yesterday.


I love this picture, not just because it's pretty sharp for how little the spider is, but because this is the first time I've ever captured the big beautiful eyes of a jumping spider.


As I was focusing on this little thing, I wasn't even sure it was a bug until I took the picture. The legs were so skinny, I could not see them with my eyes, even with my glasses!

This spider's abdomen was about the size of a sesame seed.
