They're all great pictures but I think the ladybug one stands out as extra great.

Ooo... there was a baby spider ball on the back porch railing yesterday, but I didn't think to take a picture of it. And of course, they're all gone now. Nifty pictures! :)

Yeah, the ladybug is the one I'm happy with as a photograph. The others, well, they're documentation of baby spiders.

Trying to do macro with the little digicam is a matter of hand-holding plus lenses in front of its face and (since the LCD is not full-res) guessing the focal distance. Sometimes you get lucky anyway.

When my pony comes, it will bear a six-megapixel digicam with 1) a macro 24-240mm zoom tilt/shift f/1 lens, 2) time-lapse mode (it would be so easy!), and 3) of course not the freakin' shutter lag.

Note that the ladybug is going away from the only aphid visible. They haven't gotten any smarter since last year.

(Eli, that second picture is also very fine documentation of a grass spikelet.)
