And the eggs have hatched! An Amphipyra pyramidea caterpillar, getting some energy by eating the shell of an empty egg, in order to escape from its own.

You are over the top good at macro photography. Wow. Spectacular!

Thanks guys!! 

Each of the eggs is a bit smaller than the ball on the tip of a ball pen... I also have a video with it, I will need to remove the sound from it (lots of noise!) and then I will upload it to Youtube :)

By the way, click on the image to see the full resolution version of it!

The detail in that file is astonishing!

Dimitrios managed that fantastic detail with "only" a 24 mps sensor, but with a massive amount of highly creative post-processing. This demonstrates that computational photography is really the cost effective (obviously not as a one-off, but on a massive scale) and technologically superior approach, rather than hardware (larger sensors). I suspect this is why Leica is now so involved in cell phone photography. In the not too distant future, we'll look back on this arms race in mps just as we now look at the "muscle cars" of the 1960s as macho but as a far less efficient way of producing speed. I suspect the biggest challenge to increased  in-camera computational photography is dissipating the heat without making cameras so large in order to house those heat sinks. 

The newest version of the Leica M10 doesn't have a LCD screen, and, if you want that view, you can have it on your cell phone. Perhaps one way to add massive computational power is to merge fully communication between camera and cell phone.

Taken with my Leica Q today. Was quite impressed with level of detail in spite of mild off focus on tail.

Nice catch! I'm jealous as I tried for over an hour on Thursday to get a dragonfly to rest long enough to be shot.

Thanks! I was lucky to find a perch where this one kept coming back to. Heard it’s best to try early or late in day so I’m headed back out in the morning! :)
