    Thank you for your comment, the orange of the marigold and the green certainly go together very well…

    Superb ladybug capture. Can even see it eating. Your camera has a great close-up setting to achieve this much magnification.

    ¡Hola Mike!, I'm glad you liked the images. I'll be uploading more here, and if anyone wants to, they can use this same thread to upload their macros...

    Hello again, I'm glad you like that little mariquita. The truth is, despite its limitations, my little camera allows me to have a great time chasing bugs and discovering all those little details around us. And part of the fun is doing a Google image search afterwards to identify what you find. And you always learn something. For example, the daisy is not a single flower, but an inflorescence:

    A day when I don't learn something is a day wasted.
    I didn't know daisies were an inflorescence. Thank you.

    A small hoverfly (Episyrphus balteatus): all my life running away from them thinking they were wasps 😄

    Nice capture, you did a good job despite that tricky light.
    And speaking of hair, there's a saying around here that says that where there's hair, there's joy 😁
