Number 4: what a horror show!

Excellent macros!

BTW, the mosquitos in 5 look like aedeas aegypti - main vector of dengue virus. Hope I would be proved wrong .

Excellent. I like the first one the most.

As an ecologist, I love it that you identified the various species — and that you showed parasitic interactions… including the last shot!

Does your camera body have a way of accepting EXIF data from non-electronic lenses?

Thank you! Hoping it wasn't carrying the virus. Forgot to apply the repellent

Thank you! I love showcasing the lesser seen fauna, not using the common names helps

The adapters I use relays the standard "50mm" for all lenses :|
