Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
The lockdown has been bad for many reasons, however one very small benefit is that a primary school near me left its car park open and it turned out to have wonderful insects and spiders there on just a few bushes. Sadly it has now closed again even at weekends.
I could ask the school to get permission - to photograph at weekends but I am not confident that I would get it.

Diaea dorsata a first for me

Excellent batch Dave! The first little guy looks like he drinks too much gatoraid!
 
You are getting some excellent shots Dave.
 
Real nice set. If you can get the same healthy sunlight and air as those insects, go for it.
