Description
Found a lot of these small Midges (6-9mm) at the wetlands the other day. First time I have seen this one with those wonderful antenna. Like peacock feathers. And loved this pose he was striking for me. Quite a grand looking insect.
Thanks for looking and all your kind comments here and all my recent posts.

Crazy, they drive you crazy! Nice macro work.
Absolutely stunning! The texture of his "floor" and the background really compliment your subject, an outstanding photograph you have made!
Thanks... The floor is a leaf with what i assume is a collection of dirt, dust and pollen. It does look rather interesting.
Every element in this photo complements the other. Grand Art/Photo work!
Superb capture my friend. God bless.
Perfect !
Is he doing something Yogic? That pose is quite athletic ! This is another of your stunning revelations, Bruce, marvellous.
Thank you much. Agree, that is one heck of a pose. Those front legs are crazy!
STUNNING macro !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent shot. Nicely done.
What are they eating when there is no Bruce? Superb macro.
Are these the same midges that one reads about being so pesky in N. England and in Scotland? I've never seen one before...what amazing and beautiful creatures they are...superb shot!
I suppose they are the same type. Though when I was shooting these they didn't seem to notice me at all and went about their business. They are very cool looking indeed.
Fantastic macro!
Such an amazing macro, to see it on zoom is so very detailed an colorful. A magnificent photo, Bruce.

Amazing insect and a brilliant shot, love the DOF effect, just perfect!
