Absolutely gorgeous -- thanks for posting the images. The one of the Cotton Stainer bug in particular is stunning!

Tchuanye, were you a bug in a former life? LOL. Actually, I am amazed by your mastery of the insect world, and that the insects seem to just pose for you. Great work. Agree with others who have suggested a book. You should really consider that.

National Geogrphaphic could do an article on your work.

#2, 3, 5 are spectacular, indeed.
Also the first and the last two are, but I have already seen something similar. Congratulations as always.

Amazing images, the second is worthy of the front cover of National Geographic.

What close-up lense(s) did you use?
