Bugs In Close-Up

Macro photography brings the world of bugs to life!

These creatures are all around us, yet too diminutive to be observed by the human eye.

The extreme photographic close-ups illustrate a hidden fauna of alien-looking critters from around the world.

Bugs In Close Up includes assassin bugs, rhinoceros beetles, insect swarms and societies (army ants, bees and so on), inter-species relationships (ants ‘farming’ caterpillars), and giants of the bug world (beetles, stick instects and the like).

The incredible photography is supported by informative, extended captions detailing the subjects and, in some cases, how the images were taken.
