Very good, sadly the only thing harder than getting good photos of lacewings is identifying them from photos!

Indeed, far to many insects to know and learn about and the fact that some need cutting up to get a positive ID is not helpful.

I think that is really appealing. I love all the variation of textures and light in the leaf, in such a strong, almost abstract straight line arrangement. And the lacewing so well placed against a brighter area, its interesting shape contrasting well and holding its own against the strong background. Lovely balance.

Thanks for passing by Nick, glad you like.
