Alien Invasion!!! by geertje

Alien Invasion!!!

202 / 365
I was walking around my garden, minding my own buisness, when I discovered this! Scary!
I think this alien is sucking the life out of my flowers...
Please view at the large screen!

Thanks for all your comments on my experimants with the new camera. I'm learning as we go.
I'm glad you like the new profile-picture, I'll tell my mom she did a great job! I couldn't post it on this project, because I didn't take the picture myself...

The alien looks like a giant flower-mosquito! Awesome macro, full of details! I guess it's not that big, is it?
posted April 29th, 2011  
Is this a mosquito! It looks really scary! I love all the detail though!
posted April 29th, 2011  
@scatcat Well, it's about the same size as an average fly, pretty big for a mosquito! I guess it's a flower-mosquito, thanks for that!

this really looks like a alien, great macro! like your profile picture too! (ps als je eerst de oude profielfoto verwijderd en dan pas de nieuwe er op zet en je refresht de pagina dan staat ie meteen overal ipv de oude)

@geertje Oh Geertje, I was kind of joking when I gave it the name flower-mosquito, I don't think it really exist! Sorry for the confusion :-0

Bzzzzz, beautiful! Amazing effect!

Fun shot, Geertje! And I LOVE your new profile photo, but for some reason it only shows up for me when I click "view large". On all your postings, I still see your other photo.
