Millipede

**Bilbo_baggin** · 16th October 2009

Millipedes are found in most parts of the world, they are Myriapods, which means they have a short head, long segmented body and many pairs of legs. Each body segment has two pairs of legs. This one is on a housebrick - you can see old cement and some mosses and a small splinter of a dead plant stem...

C&C as always encouraged.

not bad bilbo, but there's a bit too much foreground for my liking, and i would have expected you to get a lot closer than that

can you imagine that guy doing a kung fu kick

Agree with Will, bit too much foreground bilbo. Otherwise like the composition.

I'm with the guys on the foreground. A little less of that would be nice.

Nice shot on the millipede. The natural environment looks great. I feel that the level of magnification in this shot is about right because yuo have captured a more natural looking scene.

Nice!
