Cicada
Also known as the locust - this critter was captured in crisp detail way back in 1976 while studying photography at a Texas university.
Oriental Arachnid
This colorful arachnid was described to me as a "Japanese Fighting Spider" by a local Okinawan villager. The detail is incredible - right down to the "silk" squirting from the spider's abdomen.
Resting Blue Morpho
"Morpho peleides" - the exotic Blue Morpho butterfly - taking a break at the Frederick Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Blue Morpho rarely opens its beautifully colored wings to bask in the sun, but I captured one doing exactly that. It is available elsewhere in the gallery.
Rest Stop
This award winning image was taken at the Detroit Zoo. The beautiful "Heliconius hecale", or Hecale Longwing, landed briefly on the sprig of evergreen.
Bog Fritillary
Boloria eunomia - or Bog Fritillary - may be a threatened species due to changing habitat if global warming occurs as predicted over the next several years. Algonquin Provincial Park in northern Ontario provided the setting for this image.
