    Great macros, Almo! I especially like the one with the spider clutching to the dragon. Keep 'em coming.

    heres my contribution. Dragonflys are a lot of fun to photograph, and sometimes you can get ones that will let you get about 6 inches away without flying off.

    Eh? Damselflies? I didn't know there was such a thing? Assumed they were all dragonflies.

    So how can you tell?
