Insects Upclose

Another spider shot

This dragon fly got lucky and manage to snag a green bottle fly

In a matter of seconds it looks like a round blob in its mouth. The dragon fly actually ate the fly while spinning it around in its jaws

Shots for the week.

Well here is a shot of the orchid directly from below.

Another flower found in the garden.

Shot of cloud taken at BSentral

Orchid Effect

Shot some more orchids in my garden. Took this in raw and played with the settings.

Didn't turn out the way I wanted. Dof too small, still quite a nice angle from the bottom. Will try this shot again.

Frontal shot kinda looks like a pixie

Focus on the centre and try to blur out the other two

Kuala Kubu Bahru Pt1

Thanks to Divemuster, Hawkspy and Moggie for inviting me to the Kuala Kubu Trip. Had some fears when Divemuster first told me what was involved! Nope wasn't afraid of the water, was afraid for my camera! Didn't have a water proof bag and obviously camera don't mix well with water. Overall I had an enjoyable time, lunch was superb and it was nice and cold! :D Anyway here are some of my shots. Enjoy

Thorny Caterpillar [Moggie its not horny! its thorny]. Now what butterfly does this belongs to again?
