Yesterday, we set out in the truck (4x4) to see if we could find

they had been, the week before.
But the day was not lost. As I hiked around one of the ponds, I
came across this little guy...

He was quite a challenge to shoot, as he was fast and he was small.
If you want to know just how small... look here....

I wasn't prepared for impromptu macro work, so I used the 12~60 Oly
zoom and the 1.4x converter. The result was a 120mm lens with a 12"
close focus distance, and it worked!
Comments, criticism appreciated, as always.
Cheers!
