This is my first butterfly in flight shot. I followed this thing across the yard for ten minutes and think I ended up with whiplash trying to keep it in the viewfinder. It's a good thing they didn't design planes around these things, food service would definitely have to go.

Some flies in the process of creating more flies. Another angle to that posted in the 60mm macro thread.

Think this is a ladybird (ladybug) pupa.

More of these than anything else in my garden at the moment. Taken with a Marumi +5 achromat on my Olympus 60mm f2.8. Lighting is an FL50R with a Pringles tube over the head on TTL auto.
