Howdy people,

over at Easter I found this silly "bug"ger on my window and hurried over to get my cam.
I used my regular lens with the 20mm extention tube so that I could get in real close....
Close enough??
It was for me... in the original is showed a complete desert on my window, which meant I had to get some cleaning done!

This image I have cleaned up with Photoshop... just selected the bug and altered the area. I did use the colors of the background of the original.
And of course I have cropped it, coz there was quite a bit of space around the creature.

Enjoy!
Anneke

Very nice work, Anneke.
Sharp as a knife and professional postprocessing work.
I like the blurred background. It makes as if the bug is sitting inside my computer.

Hi Anneke.
Wat een prachtige opname en wat scherp. Heel bijzonder heb zo iets nog nooit eerder bekeken meestal sloeg ik deze met mijn hand weg.
Knap werk.

Hi Anneke, what a good shot of the Bug through the window!! Feel safer with him on the other side of the glass!! And we get to see his undersides too.
Very clear - good PP work too.
Well done
Janice

You have very clean windows:)You may have done some cleaning but it is still cleaner than mine:)
Great details on this one with good exposures.
