    Hello Everyone. Greetings from India. I am a photographic enthusiast as many of you here are and macro is my favorite subject! So here I am!

    Happened to spot this dead hornet in my garden, so decided to take the shot up close. Used image stacking technique (7-10 images) to get more DoF on the subject. Didn't pay attention to clean/clear the unwanted stuff off the insect like the thread sticking out of the mandibles (I think) but...

    Your opinion? Twin-lobed deerfly

    The twin-lobed deerfly's bite is particularly painful and can cause swelling.

She's also a relentless stalker once she's got her green eyes on you. You...
