macro shots

for the month of february 2009, we had to take shots of winged insects no butterflies/moths to be taken since they are already overused. we have to look for different species of winged insects and try to make them appealing. went out in the garden and was surprised to see so many kinds of insects whether they may be winged or not. since we need to shoot winged insects here are my takes.

this one i went to my parents house and my dad a cockfighting afficionado has an egg incubator in the house and saw this one egg about to hatch...converted it to b&w taken with canon 40d with 60mm macro.

above photos i took in my own home, the 1st one is a centipede that is very abundant in our garden, they call it in tagalog "singsing pares"; the 2nd one i had a termite control check our house and they found this termite mound near my house , they got the queen and I had the queen posed for some shots before she was added to the ginebra gin the termite guys had with them. they add the queen to their gin kinda like a tequila with a worm inside the bottle. they say that the soldiers/workers mites always makes the queen squeeky clean and its high in protein......fear factor meal this they can do....
this one taken in virgin resort, laiya batangas. went there with the family and saw this crab just could help myself but take a picture of this one.
this are moth i saw in the screen door of my in laws in pampanga....i captured both of them and placed them face to face each other then took a photo of it... like this one most....
