At last... Spitbubbles!!!!

Post by nephiliim »

Hey folks,

I left half a honeydew melon in the garden for a few days. And finally after years of trying to find the same behaviour that Danny (nzmacro) captures and uses as a trademark 8), I succeeded in finding AND capturing it.

Hope you like it,

All the best,

Well, Gee Tom, that is my all time favorite passion, looking for fly spit shots :roll:.... Very beautiful picture Tom. The melon must have been very juicy. You need an avatar for your name :wink: :lol: What we need to do now is capture a fly with a bubble on each end :smt045 :smt044 (The tropics always have the best fruits to eat)

Nothing like a good "hock" I always say, you know the kind that is sort of like napalm, sticks to what ever it hits. :lol: Hey a good shot there TomB and not to make lite of your efforts, I too have been wanting to capture a shot like this. Good work! :wink:

What did you have in mind? Do you know what my name means, although it is spelled like I was two of them. First person (or however its called) is spelled Nephilim.

All the best and thank you both for the comments,
