Description
I took this a couple of weeks back, and too scale it for you that blunt looking nail is actually a sharp fine sewing needle. This aphid I kid you not was about 2mm if that, and that is the length not the width. I think it is the smallest thing I have manages to photograph so far.
Thanks for stopping by for a look and for any comments you car to make.
May the sun shine down on you where ever you are.
If you want to zoom I won't stop you but it looks crap!!

Quite an achievement, Jeff!
Superb Macro Jeff! I'm well impressed with the detail and focus! 5+
Gosh Jeff - did you use a microscope as a lens??? Well done my friend... With my eyesight I would probably not even see the little critter!!! lol... :)
When you zoom in it looks like a microbe. Excellent macro and lighting!!
This image is very cool. 5+!
they maybe small but are extremely destructive to plants and flowers.it is extremely small and an outstanding macro
Aww, what buggy little eyes it has! I never saw one this close. I actually think it is kind of cute! (I know, strange huh)? These things are soo tiny! My goodness, I have never seen anything magnified so much, except under a microscope. I am just astounded at this! This should win a prize for tiniest insect captured by camera! And I think its pointy little behind is cute too. ;) Lea
Doesent look crap to me mate, looks like a microscopy shot, in fact I may of been tempted to run a circular selection around it and have a black BG?...anyway, super macro mate.
The only thing I can say is amazing. just amazing.
I think its a fantastic macro Jeff, I tried to photograph a Spider that was hanging by its thread from my ceiling last night. I spent hours with my tripod all three legs balancing on my coffee table lol and I gave up in the end, none were good enough as far as macro's go and it was probably 10 times or more bigger than this little fellow ! Bravo! Incredible shot!
Hi Jeff such a sweet capture the eyes have it Sunshine smile to you warm hug, Linda
wow next you be photo the little bugs that walk on our skin. seen that on TV one time. cool shot here
Holy cow! Thats one super macro! For such an obnoxious pest they sure are cute! Wonderful capture! Sorry for my late response, I appreciated you dropping by and commenting!
