I don't think I should be eligible to win the prize since I'm an admin over at Math Craft, so I decided I might as well contribute a few random bug shots.

In what context to capture the second photo? The first photo is really beautiful.
Basically, whenever I see a cool looking object I try to take a picture of it. I think I had to pick the millipede up and place him/her on a piece of paper. I then had to get out my big manual flash and bounce it off the ceiling because I was using a 300 mm equivalent lens with a macro adapter that allowed me to focus from a distance of about 4 inches away. I had to close down my aperture to f22 otherwise the depth of field would have been less than a millimeter. Or is that too much context.
Next time I'll stick with thanks!
ha, no, that's great!
Why wouldn't you be eligible?
I just don't want anyone to think there is any bias. Besides this lets me post more pictures and have an excuse when I don't win. :)
Ahhh... smart :)
That's an awesome video
Thanks! I really should have gone back to get a little tripod... It's hard to be steady when shooting at 300mm equivalent and only 4 inches away from the end of the lens. :)
Yea, but the shakiness makes it look more natural and interesting.
