Simply outstanding! Totally...freaking...outstanding! AND, presented with a classy, tastefull, and small copyright mark!

Both are fantastic, as Derrel said, but the first one is by far the better of the two. Fantastic images! Were they shot in natural light?

Nice sharp pics of a very interesting insect. I've never seen one of those before, at least I've never noticed one before. I love Macro photography - you get to see things in a whole new perspective. After all, you don't see what you don't look for.

Thanks, Ralph

Nice shots! We have Scorpion flies here in the UK too, harmless critters though.
