1. I think that's butterfly lighting on the bee! nt

2. Thanks. That was luck. Because the EPL1 does not have

a remote shutter, I use the timer. I was on a wooden deck so I set it to 12 seconds to allow things to settle. During that time that little bugger strolled into the frame.

The petal acted as the reflector.

8. Ever since I was a kid, I have loved small things. I hope some day to score

a digital microscope so I can look deeper.

Some bellows would be fun too.
