Photo Adventures with Curiosity and Learning

This Saturday morning started early. I was off to my spider place about 7:20 this morning. I discovered that I could switch the flash to manual mode (SB800) and avoid the preflash - which sometimes scares the little metallic colored flys. It seems to work. Here is what I think is a lynx

And a metallic fly
