| The hot days of July are great for photographing insects. This bumble bee seems to be posing on the aster blossom, doesn't it? |
 |
| I like to get close enough to imagine being enfolded in the pastel landscape of the flower, to be in the insect's world. Click to enlarge. |
 |
| See how the stamens seem to float in the center of this red daylily? |
 |
| When a green sweat bee lands ... |
 |
| It can look surreal. |
 |
| Sometimes a photo reveals a lurking arthropod surprise. I was taking pictures of wild rose pagonia orchids like this one in the New Jersey pine barrens. |
 |
| I was about to delete this shot because it's not sharply focused when I noticed that yellow blip on the petal. |
 |
| Zoom surprise! The yellow blip is a crab spider. |
 |
| And surprise within surprise! The spider is holding a tiny captured insect. |
 |
| Uncomfortable weather for us out there right now. Good times for the insects. |
