Bug Buffet by bluemoon

Bug Buffet

So we finally have some bugs flying around and they're all hanging out on the blossoms on my little Mt. Vernon Maple tree! I've been waiting for months for signs of life but I forgot about one small problem....the wind. It's really difficult to take an up close shot of these itsy bitsy bugs when they're constantly bobbing around. I took a lot of pictures but most didn't get to many that didn't have some motion blur...this is the best I could come up with today.
Wonderful details! Fabulous!

quite magical ...a fav but nearly not as the frame detracts here from the softness of what you have caught so brilliantly. I know you love your frames :-)) A lovely image.
