Macro on Monday - Guess What

A range of suggestions were given for last week's mystery photo. Wilma was spot on saying it was frost on a window (it was -10C outside that morning) so receives my congratulations and the   gold star  for a correct identification. Matron was close when she said she scraped it from her car windscreen each morning. I think the brown background may have fooled some. That was caused by direct sunlight shining on the glass.

Taken with the iPhone4 with miniature microscope:

This week's mystery photo was also taken with the iPhone set up. The creature was about 5mm long and the photo was modified using the 'glowing edges' filter in Photoshop Elements. Can you spot what it is?

No prizes, just for fun.

  1. Hi John, I'm assuming it's a Ladybird but maybe I'm being too naive :-)

  2. Lady beetle. I like the glowing edges effect. Makes it look like an Andy Warhol painting.

Thank you for visiting. Hope you enjoyed the pictures. Any comment, or correction to any information or identification I get wrong, is most welcome. John
