    Photos Cranefly detail

    This cranefly (Tipula confusa I think) was flat against a brick wall, and this was rotated 90 degrees to get the best composition and crop. I barely noticed the globule of water on its antenna, nor the bundle of something over its mouth - a bit of spider's silk I think... Surprising what a macro lens shows us...

    You never fail to impress me. That is a truly awesome image. Just goes to show that some of the creatures we see in science fiction alien movies are not that far fetched. (">

    Yeah - it's surprising really - science fact and science fiction can be so close to each other...

    Cheers BB.
