    Things you'll never see with your naked eye. 1/16 of an inch long creatures of the night made large for your viewing pleasure. Micro mayfly. The first in a series of micro insects I will post.

    Thanks Mark. This could prove interesting. Would Gnats be among them (even though they are not necessarily creatures of the night as far as I know.)

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Gnats are definitely a possibility Larry, but this time it's a 1/16 of an inch long micro moth.

    Mike, thanks for the link.

    There are many such moths, Larry. This is but one.

    thanks for sharing

    Thank you so much , Frank. I don't draw with Xara in the warm months because I'm too busy taking wildlife photos. (Wish I had time to do both) I do however finalize and process my photos in Xara, so it's something I like to do and something that involves Xara that I can share with the folks here.

    This one is not a 1/16 inch long creature; though it is not a whole lot larger, but I like to post other insects too. Not my best photo of a leaf hopper but one of my favorites.
