Some black and white macro shots [Original Photography]

The UK is in the middle of a heatwave - I don't think it's rained in our part of the world now for 2 months. The heat brings a lot of dead and dying vegetation but also brings out a lot of insects and bugs. The butterflies and moths have started showing themselves. Thought I would drop a few images that I took tonight of some of the creatures in our garden. Was cool to watch the spider eating its catch.

Thanks for the amazing comment. Much appreciated.

Really amazing pics. I can't understand how can you get to take this kind of images, how can you see them...

Congratulations!

#markangeltrueman Mark you are genius with micro-shots with black and white background

Absolutely amazing shots.

I like the last one the most even though I must admit it is pretty scary for a guy who isn't a great admirer of spiders. :)

Oh wow- these are incredible shots - it's like a glimpse into another universe! I particularly love the one of the moth- absolutely gorgeous. E x

Cool! What light sources did you use?

Sorry, i thought i replied to this before but it couldnt have sent. I use a hotshoe mounted flashgun with a lastolite softbox mounted on it.

Oh these are amazing... I have a serious obsession for moths and been trying to film some for a video and been painting them for next release. I bred silk moths when a child. I guess i am more moth than butterfly myself. Lovely shots
