I'm not sure why, but this one made me laugh. It has a bit of a 3-D look on my screen. Maybe small objects stuck to both surfaces of glass has macro possibilities I have never considered.

Hi Lorna,

Great entry!
If you cut the top half of the photo you get a mosquito trapped next to almost perfect angel-wings. Did you see that? Incredible.

Thank you both for the encouragement, And Pam you Know what they say if you can't handle the heat!!!!

No seriously I am a little over whelmed and very humbled to see such skill and talent every week in all the forums and then to see my image in the WP is very grounding! Thanks again!
