Since people here seem to like macro photos, I give you some of my work.
The dragonfly and spider were severely cropped so as to show more detail of the subject, and sorry for taking up the entire page.

WOW! That's AMAZING! I have trouble getting macro pictures of food, never mind moving insects! Well done!
Love that butterfly. Got a desktop wallpaper sized?
Just superb. I really love that spider photo. Any idea what was spun up in it's web?
I've never even attempted macro photography before. Do you essentially sit with the lens focused on a stick and hope for a dragonfly to land in your shot? I can't imagine any other way to get such a close-up shot in nature than that.
I think it was a dragonfly that was in the web.
Certain insects aren't very skiddish - dragon flys will fly around for a bit, but when they land they stay put for a minute of two. Also, it helps to have a good lens - mine was $550. And mlx, PM me your email and I'll send you what I have.
Don't be shy about taking up the whole page, its your blog baby!
