xoxoxoBruce Friday Apr 2 01:14 AMApril 2, 2010: Dew Do
A couple of people sent these pictures saying you ought to see them, but didn't want to post them, so I guess I'm it.
Either these insects got caught in a heavy dew, or the hairspray stream of a Jersey Girl.
Quote:
Glistening in the early morning, these insects look like creatures from another planet as dew gathers on their sleeping bodies.
Captured in extreme close-up, one moth appears to be totally encrusted in diamonds as it rests on a twig.
Dragonflies, flies and beetles also take on an unearthly quality as the water droplets form on them.
These remarkable photographs were taken by physiotherapist Miroslaw Swietek at around 3am in the forest next to his home.
Using a torch, the 37-year-old amateur photographer hunts out the motionless bugs in the darkness before setting up his camera and flash just millimetres from them.

Pie Friday Apr 2 09:47 AMThanks for posting this, Bruce. I guess I don't check in with the Cellar early enough to submit the IotD.

Shawnee123 Friday Apr 2 01:09 PMomg...what is that from? I remember that. It wasn't 'bugs'
Even without remembering, I'm really laughing.
