His mind moves upon silence

I love the longlegged flies in my yard--they especially seem to like hanging out on the grape leaves in the morning.


I think this one is the same species as the first one.


I keep posting stuff on bugguide and the same guy keeps dismissing me summarily. My current camera and lens combination doesn't allow for very clear macro shots, I know this. His profile makes him sound a bit arrogant, so I'm trying not to take it personally. Part of me wants to get a good macro lens and blow him away with my amazing skill, but part of me thinks he wouldn't be impressed regardless, and why would I want to impress him anyway?
