  9. Really cool images , thanks for sharing

  10. Not enough words to describe how awesome these are!

  11. Wow those are super creepy so big! I need to buy a decent macro lens and ring flash so I can creep people out too!

  16. fanteastic collection….thanks alot…..

  17. Work like that done by Tyson Crosbie should definitely be on this list. I’m a huge fan of all his work, though where I fell in love was with his abstract pieces.

    Phoenix 21 series: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tysoncrosbie/sets/72157613022956992/

  18. Another individual whose work I like, Code Arachnid on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/codearachnid/sets/72157606100328277/

    I really like his dragonflies!

  19. What amazing photos… makes me want to get a macro lens!

  20. Some of these made my eyes hurt or made me feel nauseous, but some of them were really well done! i especially liked the spoon reflecting the cat drawing, blown out match, plant growing in the cracks, and the lizard way in the beginning.

    I’m also wondering why so many of these are of bees. Not my number one choice of a subject because they look kind of creepy and gross in some cases, but I guess they’re probably a good subject to practice with!

  21. awesome..! i like it..

  22. Unfortunately you have used all these images without the permission of the photographers. I know this because there is a debate about taking legal action against you on a discussion forum where many of the photographers go.

    You should ALWAYS ask permission as there is a huge amount of work goes into making just one of these images. You should also ALWAYS credit the photographer and link back to the original.

    It’s up to you waht action you take, but you have been forewarned.

  23. I see that the images do link back, but a credit should be given with the image itself. You have also cropped many of the images which is copyright infringement.

  24. TThis linkis one you should include http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/board/45 People don’ mind their pix being seen as long as they are credited.

    And have a look at http://www.beingmark.com Not your average macro, guaranteed.

  25. fantastic detailing..amazing perspective n unusual subjects ..the images are perfectly blurred..the best capture is the resting butterflies ..its an incredible shot..thanx a lot for sharing..
