When my wife was studying photography, I made up a macro kit for her. I had completely forgotten about it until I saw this thread. Will start playing with it this week.

I was asked by someone in China this morning, to send a fabric sample....then he asked why not take a pic of the fabric....so I was mucking about with my cell ph cam on "Close-up" mode but it wasn't showing enough detail. Then I got an idea.....I have a really old school microscope! I use it for fabric analysis....so I thought to try something...afterall, nothing nothing gained. Put the fabric under the m/scope with the light on....and took this pic wiff cell ph cam with the lend right above the eye-piece. Viola! Success! China-man can now see edzachary what the fabric construction is.

Meet Spikey, usually flies stalk humans. In my garden it is the other way around.  :laughing4:

First pic is a Ghost Cricket - a common desert resident
Second is a Dung Beetle about to take flight - Note the little dimples on its thorax, this is really uncommon.
Third is a Barking Gecko - These are the delightful little dudes behind the iconic "tjik tjik tjik tjik tjik" you hear resounding through the Kalahari at night.
Fourth is a dangerous scorpion species (Parabuthus raudus) which you're very likely to bump into in the Kalahari dunes.

All photographs were taken at Witsand Kalahari Nature Reserve, Northern Cape.
