SHANGRALA'S

MACRO GARDEN PHOTOS!

Welcome to the world of Macro photography! These photographers allow us to peak inside the world of tiny insects and plants.       Keith Trueman, from Braunton, in North Devon, hunts for the bugs around his garden or around the local country park - and sometimes even invites the insects into his kitchen for their own personal photoshoot. He releases them unharmed afterwards.            Just When You Thought It Was        Safe To Go In Your Garden! Enjoy! :) Keith found this Jumping Spider - Salticus scenicus - in his garden before inviting it indoors. The spider is a variety which shuns webs, hunting prey instead. The common wasp - Vespula vulgaris - was also willing to have his portrait taken, thankfully not stinging Keith in return for the picture session. Bet you've never seen this creepy creature up close: The Vine Weevil is a common enough garden pest, nibbling on the edges of leaves and leaving little notches behind. The Common Blue Damselfly hangs around gardens most summers. The long creatures have a surprisingly gruff appearance when you get up close to them. These shots show us the incredible beauty of our plant world...

The Rove Beetle is one of the oldest creatures around - they have existed for 200 million years at least. But it is only in the last 100 years or so that they could be pictured. The Scorpion Fly is actually a species of flea, which mates through elaborate rituals involving gifts from the males to the females. God's incredible beauty up close is quite awesome! Keith said: 'This image took me quite a few hours to set up. The Ant is only 3mm in length. I'm not overly happy with the lighting and looking at it now'. Keith added: 'I wish I had diffused it a bit more and perhaps placed a couple of lens shades on the LED lights to help tame the light'. Hopefully Keith did not need to get too dirty taking this image of the Dung Fly: There are 54 varieties of this creature in Britain. One last bug makes its way through Keith's kitchen, before being shooed back out into the garden.
