It's spring and I have a new toy! Laowa 50mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro for micro four thirds. I have the full frame version for my canon rig and it's amazing, so I just couldn't resist when they released a MFT version and pulled my old Olympus out of the cupboard. It's equally impressive, and it's really nice to use a smaller rig again. Don't get me wrong, the Olympus 60mm macro is great, but it's so nice to have the extra range up to 2x magnification. Laowa are killing it lately! 🦀🕷️ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #macro_turkey #mta_macro #macro_highlight #insectguru #uwn_insect #bns_macro #macroworld_tr #macro_freaks #macrogrammers #arthropod_perfection #macromicroworldss #ip_insects #onceupon_a_macro #macro_captures_ #grikart_macro #invert_macro #cnc_mcu #thingsupclose #exclusive_world_marco #wholelottabugs #macro_alit #turklikeben_macro #raw_insects #macropicks #macrosfourworld #1macroshot #beautiful_insects_japan #galeri_makro #kings_insects #top_macro https://www.instagram.com/p/CFErj1bAgma/?igshid=ydgy3p9b77a8

Once again, I tried, and failed to identify this one. I am a failure. Shame on me and my entemological ignorance. And shout out to my bestest insect spotterer @kylieh875 for spotting this one 😊 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #macrogrammers #thingsupclose #exclusive_world_marco #onceupon_a_macro #macrosfourworld #1macroshot #macro_captures_ #top_macro #galeri_makro #turklikeben_macro #ip_insects #raw_insects #macropicks #uwn_insect #insectguru #bns_macro #mta_macro #invert_macro #kings_insects #grikart_macro #cnc_mcu #arthropod_perfection #macroworld_tr #macromicroworldss #beautiful_insects_japan #macro_turkey #macro_freaks #macro_highlight #macro_alit #wholelottabugs https://www.instagram.com/p/B-bx270Ag6a/?igshid=1dt7cnpz8uach

The second photo is what I would normally post, but lately I've been thinking that since Instagram pictures are a mere 1080 x 1080 pixels, and my files are much larger, a huge amount of this wonderful detail is lost unless you crop in real close. So this first picture is cropped to exactly 1080 x 1080 pixels of the original file. Purists be damned, I'll crop however I want to. Although the bigger scene is needed, I feel like the real beauty is in the eyes, and they definitely deserve a close up. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #macrogrammers #thingsupclose #exclusive_world_marco #onceupon_a_macro #macrosfourworld #1macroshot #macro_captures_ #top_macro #galeri_makro #turklikeben_macro #ip_insects #raw_insects #macropicks #uwn_insect #insectguru #bns_macro #mta_macro #invert_macro #kings_insects #grikart_macro #cnc_mcu #arthropod_perfection #macroworld_tr #macromicroworldss #beautiful_insects_japan #macro_turkey #macro_freaks #macro_highlight #macro_alit #wholelottabugs https://www.instagram.com/p/B-WwXgqAvTS/?igshid=189anyqvu74hw

Wasp moth (Erassa angustipenna). I had never seen one of these until a few weeks ago, and now all of a sudden I'm seeing them all the time. It may not be the best disguise, but it works at least well enough that on average they don't get snaffled up by predators before breeding. Evolution is wonderful like that. Uncaring and without purpose, tiny random changes incrementing through unfathomabley long time periods, until one day you just happen to have a variety of seemingly unrelated creatures that are striped orange and black. And if it works, it survives. But the real mystery is are they orange with black stripes or black with orange stripes? ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #uwn_insect #thingsupclose #top_macro #beautiful_insects_japan #macro_turkey #macroworld_tr #mta_macro #invert_macro #macromicroworldss #exclusive_world_marco #macrogrammers #wholelottabugs #insectguru #turklikeben_macro #raw_insects #ip_insects #macrosfourworld #macrobutterfly #onceupon_a_macro #macro_freaks #macro_captures_ #galeri_makro #kings_insects #grikart_macro #macro_highlight #arthropod_perfection #macropicks #bns_macro #macro_alit #cnc_mcu https://www.instagram.com/p/B-UTCYvg4OH/?igshid=30dlr0d3lyew

Wikipedia plagiarism time! "Ichneumon wasps or ichneumonids, is a parasitoid wasp family within the insect order Hymenoptera. This insect family, which so famously stirred skeptic thoughts in Charles Darwin, is among the most species-rich branches of the tree of life. At the same time, it is one of the groups for which our knowledge most severely lags behind their actual diversity. The roughly 25,000 species described today probably represent less than a quarter of their true richness, but reliable estimates are lacking, as is much of the most basic knowledge about their ecology, distribution and evolution." •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #ip_insects #macropicks #wholelottabugs #insectguru #1macroshot #arthropod_perfection #exclusive_world_marco #cnc_mcu #macro_highlight #thingsupclose #turklikeben_macro #bns_macro #mta_macro #invert_macro #galeri_makro #macro_turkey #macroworld_tr #macro_freaks #raw_insects #beautiful_insects_japan #grikart_macro #uwn_insect #onceupon_a_macro #kings_insects #macrogrammers #natgeo #macro_alit #macromicroworldss #macro_captures_ #top_macro https://www.instagram.com/p/B9-WRw_AdT_/?igshid=1bhqg1l6v19c4

This is exactly what the Australian reptile park website says about huntsman spiders: "Courtship in huntsman spiders is surprisingly romantic when compared to other spiders. The male is rarely attacked by the female and the process may last many hours." That's right gents, you will rarely be attacked! How romantic! 🤣 Coupled with this close up, it makes you realise just how terrifying the insect world can be. Don't get me wrong, I still find it beautiful and fascinating, but I'm thankful that I'm big and they're little. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #galeri_makro #top_macro #macro_alit #macromicroworldss #macro_turkey #exclusive_world_marco #kings_insects #onceupon_a_macro #macrogrammers #macro_captures_ #bns_macro #macropicks #macro_freaks #raw_insects #arthropod_perfection #invert_macro #natgeo #1macroshot #macro_highlight #thingsupclose #ip_insects #cnc_mcu #beautiful_insects_japan #turklikeben_macro #wholelottabugs #grikart_macro #insectguru #macroworld_tr #uwn_insect #mta_macro https://www.instagram.com/p/B9eOSYUFSKE/?igshid=13yorlp4zhedh

Having had this colony of paper wasps by my door for a long time now, I've finally managed to capture the emergence of an adult wasp from its cell! With a bonus larva in shot! ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #ip_insects #macropicks #wholelottabugs #insectguru #1macroshot #arthropod_perfection #exclusive_world_marco #cnc_mcu #macro_highlight #thingsupclose #turklikeben_macro #bns_macro #mta_macro #invert_macro #galeri_makro #macro_turkey #macroworld_tr #macro_freaks #raw_insects #beautiful_insects_japan #grikart_macro #uwn_insect #onceupon_a_macro #kings_insects #macrogrammers #natgeo #macro_alit #macromicroworldss #macro_captures_ #top_macro https://www.instagram.com/p/B9MIt0zgF1U/?igshid=krvburgw0sdv

In Australia, Easter eggs are now delivered by the Easter Wallaby in their pouch. Which is just as well because in my home state of Queensland, bunnies are outlawed. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #ausgeo #enoggerareservoir #brisbaneforrestpark #brisbanecity #kings_nature #kings_shots #wallaby #australianeasterbunny #thingsupclose https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwg9yFWh7IQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wchckzjd6czg
