Re: Amazing microscopic images of insects
That is amazing.
What I learned:
Annoying insects like the flea and bed bugs look just as annoying and disgusting up close.
Cooler insects like the bee and the wasp look pretty cool up close.
The fly looks like it'll beat up every insect if they were all the same size and weight.
Spiders are freaky."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Re: Amazing microscopic images of insects
The honey bee is weirdly cute with its fuzzy head and big eyes... icanhascheezburger style.
The dog flea is freakin weird, and the Jungle Ant looks like it would make robot Mech noises when it walks around.Last edited by Stumbleweed; 03-11-2010, 12:42 PM.Send your Midnight Release weirdo pics/videos to my new website: http://www.peopleofmidnightreleases.com!Comment

Re: Amazing microscopic images of insects
Yeah I had one of those on my screen door last summer and it was big enough that I looked it in the damn eyes. Looked just like that guy in the pics...

Yeah, they definitely are.
