Somehow forgot to post on the 18th but had taken several photos of this little creature. It was very very still while I photographed, not moving even a tad, so we had an extended photo shoot. It took me some time to realize the poor little fellow had long since expired. So, here's a shot in its memory.
Thanks for your wonderful response to my shot of the light dancer! It was one of my favorite captures since joining 365 so I'm really thrilled that so many of you had such wonderful things to say about it.
Oh, how I laughed. When you said that he was very still for you, I immediately thought 'he must be dead', as I have tried getting shots of them before. And then I read on... A great shot!
Ha! I have a similarly cooperative creature in this photo: http://365project.org/voiceprintz/faves/2013-08-01. Glad you had such a successful shoot with this fab model! ;) Lovely shot and a funny story, too!
Ha! Great shot - and your narrative made me laugh! I've done the same thing! So excited to find a cooperative insect, until you discover the Horrible Truth! ;)
good model!
It's a great shot though.
