A Fairy Land of cute lil guys...❤❤

         Insects (from Latin insectum, a calque of Greek ἔντομον [éntomon], "cut into sections") are an excellent subject in photography. 
         Wikipedia says ~They are among the most diverse groups of animals on the planet, including more than a million described species and representing more than half of all known living organisms. The number of extant species is estimated at between six and ten million, and potentially represent over 90% of the differing animal life forms on Earth. Insects may be found in nearly all environments, although only a small number of species reside in the oceans, a habitat dominated by another arthropod group, crustaceans.
        Whoa, this is a lot to take up.         Coming to my post, I have always been fascinated by them, kinda scared too but I love capturing them in frames. May be that's because I love macro shots,, may be because there are so many varieties that never ceases to amaze me. 
        Through my photographs, I have eventually come to adore them for their vibrant colors, shiny exoskeletons, teeny tiny legs, fairy like wings & lots more.
