Your visit and comment means a lot, thanks for stopping by :)
Great macro, and dof works well.

I like your quote, Ina, and find the photo mysterious. What does it show?

@givethemhell: I don't have a clue!
wonderful detail and dof.. isnt it a caterpillar? n wat is the web-like thing on the plant? it doesnt look like a spider-web..

@Nishana Minhaz: I don't have a clue what it is! I just thought it looked nice :)
Amazing detail and color. It looks like something to clean a bottle. Your quote is so true.

It really is a great capture!! I am nit sure I have seen something like that in my surroundings though!

Great capture!

Something went horribly wrong with this caterpillar - if I only could tell what it was! Very interesting capture!

Another super macro out of Krugersdorp! P.S.: Is the name in honor of Paul Kruger?

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Thanks Wolfgang! Yes, you are right, I will post a statue of him one of these days :)
the spider? great shot

This furry caterpiller has certainly got himself into a tangle with that web. The details in this shot are incredible Ina, bravo.

Excellent!

beautiful colors and interesting caterpillar!

Nice close-up that does a great job of blending out the backgrounds keeping the eyes focused on an interesting creature.

Excellent find, wonderful macro. Incredible detail. Very nice.

I am really amazed at what you are achieveing with your camera. It should be an inspiration to anyone who doesn't have all the fancy equipment (and I think I've got quite a bit, yet don't quite get what you're getting). Great shot - my macro lens at f/4 wouldn't produce anything like the dof you've got. Well done!

@dobbino: Well thank you Rob! What a lovely compliment :) I tend to push my camera's to the limit! I think people don't bother to get to know their cameras. Of course you have to have patients! If you take 100 shots and 2 is good, you know you have work to do :)
Excellent macro!

What an interesting shot, technically its perfect. The intrigue around what it is, makes this a wonderfull shot.

@Graham Russon: Thanks Graham! Maybe someone somewhere will give us an explanation :)
Excellent macro Ina. Very well spotted!
20 Mar 2008 4:12pm
Good catch!
20 Mar 2008 4:40pm
Wow! You've certainly push your camera to the limit to produce a shot like that! vu@granby - Gilles Martineau

@vu@granby: Thanks!
good question. Life, or rather nature can be cruel, but that's life isn't it? Awesome image.
20 Mar 2008 6:56pm
Really incredible find! Wonderfully taken, Ina!! Great ick factor.. LOL
20 Mar 2008 8:40pm
Cool shot! I like the detail.
