Strange Early Season Bugs.

In recent visits I’ve come across some strange and small bugs.  I’ve not identified all of them yet – but now have a couple thank to people on photography-on-the.net forum.  All were taken on my MPE-65mm lens.

I often think you can find many sci-fi monster inspirations in the insect world.  Some of these easily qualify I think.

I've been taking macro photography from 2004. I use both Canon film and digital cameras.
