Wow--these textures are amazing. And this insect...?!! Crazy! I've never seen one before. I hate to think what it "robs."

[Karen Hofmann]

Wow, very nice shot!! So crisp and clear!

Re: Chihuly-Yes, definitely had to use a polarizing filter yesterday. The sun was SO bright and right overhead.

To my untrained eyes, it looks like a small fly.

so much detail it's amazing! I love the sunlight making its wings shine and does it have a stinger coming out of the bottom of its right wing?? I love seeing and learning about different insects, birds, animals, architecture etc from other parts of the world.
