Getting an Up-Close Look

 

Yesterday I had telephoto images, today I have some macro images.  I snapped this photo of a tiny little belleza gaura flower.  The petals on this flower are about the size of my thumb.  

I got even closer to see an even tinier little insect sitting on one of the petals.  I'm not sure what kind of bug it is but I was able to get a closer look.  It's fun to find these tiny little creatures hanging out at the garden.

Nice shot... even the bugs stop and pose for you. /X\('-')/X\

What an interesting portrait of Ms. Bug.

I'm not sure what that is. Some kind of big aphid? We used to have gaura in our garden but they didn't do that well for us.

There are so many really tiny insects in the world. The flower must feel huge to this one.

Beautiful macro shots! I really enjoy switching camera lenses and the different perspectives they give.
