Meet my new friend, Woody the woodlouse.
This is my second photo session with my USB Camera Microscope and no woodlice were harmed in the making of this shot.

That's a great Christmas present Mrs. B. gave you!

[Leslie]

I think I would have harmed him... nice shot though

[📸 Bulldog 📷]

@dulciknit - Yeah. She is so considerate to get me a pet wood louse.

@lesip - No, his cute...

[Lesley]

I think you may need therapy.........good shot though :)

[Mick]

It's a baby Armadillo! :)

[📸 Bulldog 📷]

Thanks Lesley and I do hope so Mick, although I am not sure the eyes are the same. (see the link above)

Can't say this is pretty but you have captured the detail well!

[Dixie Goode]

This is a sweet shot. and yet gives me the creeps. Guilt I suppose because I have murdered too many of them as passengers on my firewood.

[Nada A.]

A camera microscope - Fun toy!

But a woodlouse - did that come with the camera as a test model?

[K1W1]

Only Bulldog would play with a creepy lil' critter like that. I'd want to hurt it the moment it moved if I couldn't run in the opposite direction.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Ooh, there is all of Woody. Very interesting.

[Ann Stenson]

Has he been sampling your beer Mr B! : }

[Jane]

wOw ~ amazing close up shot..... just love playing with new equipment! Happy New Year!!!! ♥

[Jo]

Is he/she lying on her back or standing on her feet. That is a pretty amazing macro.

[scooter]

Great macro!!!

[Leonie Mogridge]

I couldn't put the same disclaimer on my spider shot........but in my defence, it was an accidental death.
I like his antennae.

[Lyn]

Oh, I am going to have to check into this whole usb camera microscope thingy. . .except ICK. . .

[Kathryn Marshall]

Great macro! I really thought that Woody looked handsome until I found out that he is a wood louse. What does a wood louse eat? When I think of louse, I think of the lice people get in their hair.

[Dawn Reilly]

ewww! now i am all scratchy, crawly and right before i go to bed!!

[Darren Juden]

I've always had a soft spot for wood lice and help them out whenever possible! You've done this one proud. Nice shot.

[Phil]

Hi Woody - forgive me if I don't look at this up big,,,,,,,,

[🐓 Patricia Fletcher]

Haha! You've marooned him on his armour-plated back to keep him still!! Love the idea of @darrenboyj helping them out whenever possible, I do too especially when they are MAROONED on their backs . . .

[🐓 Patricia Fletcher]

Or perhaps he isn't . .

[Rachel Mackenzie]

Oh wow! Love the details and textures. I feel itchy just looking at it. LOL. Awesome shot.

[Katia]

hello woody! :D amazing close-up! :)

[Digital Hermit]

Ahhh... Are you going to keep him?

[Cindy]

Yuck yuck yuck.

[Cally]

When I was little, I used to call that a "wizzmouse". Wizzmouse is so much cooler! But you've done good with this!
