I really harassed the hell out of this bug, and I am so going to pay for that in the next life. Still, I really like this shot, and the way the lighting turned out. And the bug suffered no permanent damage, just some nudging to and fro.
The big time insect photographer freeze and/or kill their bugs, so I think I’m doing the humane thing. Mostly.
My migraine lasted for two days. Today, it feels like gauze has been removed from my vision. Things feel more clear and sharp. Also, I am hungry, so that’s the end of this post. Work calls. As do my toaster waffles.
