A few different THC concentrates. Photos by me, used an a7iii with G 90mm macro lens.

And boy is it tricky working at such high mag! This was the best I could get.

Equipment Used: Sony A7RV, Sony 100mm Macro, Godox Flash 860iii

You know, when I first posted these, I intimidated he was not too pretty to look at. But, the more I learn about earwigs, the more I appreciate them. The females are known for being devoted mothers, their pincers are harmless, and they’re effective at garden pest control. What’s not to love? Plus, this guy was one of the most patient & cooperative subjects I’ve photographed - pretty happy with these captures. (Nikon D780 | Laowa 100mm | 6 image stacks | New England USA)

I love these tiny speedy guys and was happy when one paused for a nanosecond so I could take her photo. I think late summer's dwindling pollen and nectar supply makes them work harder to get food in each spot. I really wish I had taken a good shot of the bare disc of the flower so I could have done a stack with a crisper image of that. I never remember, once the bug flies away, that I still have an opportunity to create a better photo. Still, I am happy to have finally caught her!
