Insects, Spiders and Macro-Photography

The macro-photography surely is a very interesting part of the nature-photography. But for me it's not as fascinating as the photography of wildlife birds. But I've almost always a second camera for insects and flowers with me, when I go out photographing birds.
But of course the insects-photography is fascinating, too. And if one has got the right equipment and enough patience, he will get fantastic nature-photographs of this little creatures.

DungflyAs almost all of my photos of
insects, this photo was taken at one
of my birding-tours, too...

But even if my photos of insects are in most cases accidental by-products, I want to show them here at my website. Because it's too good for rotting at home in my archive ;-) .
And in the nearest future I plan to buy a new macro-lens, so if there are coming real masses of insect photos in the future , this website is prepared to take them all ;-) !!

At the left you'll find the box, where you can click to several insect-species and view the pictures.

Much fun,
Gerd Rossen
