Mr. Dragonfly
This is the first time I've ever thought "I've just GOT to show my husband these" about any pictures on this site. He loves to take pictures of bugs, slugs and lizards. When we went out to the desert this past spring to take pictures of the desert bloom, there he was digital rebel in hand on the ground taking a picture of a catipiller. He's going to like these!

This is from my fly series. It's called fly on the wall
That's MR. FLY to you!
MR. FLY looks like he needs a bloody mary or something. lol
Well you would too if you were Swatted at all the time! LOL
Rich, how do you get the solid color backgrounds for these critters!
Excellent shots...wowowow!!!!!
Incredible!
Do you have an online photo gallery with these?
usefilm forum has 300 of my photos. If you like to put photos online you can do it there for free. Only one a day, but it also allows you to see the other photos in the larger full-page look, just sign in . I am what they call a donor, kind of like Dave's . I give $25 a year and can put in 3 shots a day and don't see any ads. I think of it as my favorie charity, and it's fun.They re-produce the photos better then any other site too.-Rich Reach my site by going to google and punch in usefilm 72858.
Thank You!

Wow, excellent, and LOOK at those colors, Rich you are Good!!!!
I add my thank you, Rich. I just went on a copy and paste orgy, sending most of your pictures, Ed's and Mark's, to my wife. I look forward to checking out that photo site.

Another backyard buddy.
maybe I can get my truck pinstriped like that. hah!
Rich do you have a pond in your back yard to attract so many?
No, but my rose bushes have a lot of places for them to perch and also my passion vine's trellisis give them a place to sit. I don't bother the wildlife. I just live with it and they see me as no threat and the yard as a safe place.
Another money shot.
I leave stuff alone as well (except rabbits). No insecticides.
Wish you could have shot something this morning. There was an insect about the size of a big housefly. It was lemon yellow with 4 pair of translucent wings and bright lime green eyes. I tried but it wasn't clear enough to waste bandwidth.
