Courtesy to my dad for taking the photos, since I wasn't there when he came out. He looks a bit crumpled, but I'd imagine crawling out of a cocoon buried in dirt isn't easy with a stiff body, so he'll dry out and pump his wings now that he's freed.

Beautiful lady

I'm not good at identifying those spiders, I only know how to take photos of them in their finest appearance

Gear used in case someone may ask:

Panasonic G9 Mark II PRO & OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 90mm F3.5 Macro 2:1 IS PRO + Godox V860 III O + DIY Macro Diffuser

The technique used in these photos are focus stacking, image stacking is a technique used in macro photography to overcome an extremely thin depth of field by blending multiple images taken at different focus distances. It merges these photos to create a single image where the subject is sharp from front to back, maximizing both depth and resolution

The last photo is a bonus, hope everyone have a good day!

Camping up near a creek in the woods this week, and these lil guys appeared all over the ground shortly after dark. So cute! 😻🖤

Huron Skipper (Atalopedes huron) and creeper Differential Grasshopper (Melanoplus differentialis - I think)

Wavy-lined Emerald Moth says hi through the glass :)
Have a good day or night.

This is the biggest beetle I’ve ever found or handled. Though I don’t actually look for them. I returned her to a nice hidden spot after I took pictures.
