Clearly Macro Monday

I just remembered I had these sitting in a file on my computer. This past summer, I found this fellow sitting on the bubbles in my kitchen sink. I plucked him out and snapped some photos. :0) Unfortunately, I think the bubbles did him in. :0(

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. :) MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – THANX to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

Oh, the poor guy – but gorgeous shots of him! I guess had he been feeling better he might not have been willing to pose so nicely for you :)
Great captures!

Never thought that I would consider as “beautiful” such an ordinary insect when I see it “live” ! You are a witch, you transfer ugly things into beauties !

Those are amazingly clear and detailed shots… shame he didn’t survive though but at least we got to marvel at his beauty.

Butterflies and moths are such great macro subjects. The transparent wings on this one are really interesting. Thanks for creating Macro Monday. I enjoy participating.

That is an awesome shot. I love the soft focus background, the way the wings seem to be glowing, the graceful curl of the antenna. Ethereal.
