I love the flying lizard. Face reminds me of Smeagol.

#4 & 7 my personal favourite. :thumbsup:
Your lens had helped us take a closer look at these creatures,
which we seldom bother to take a look at in the nature.

Nice series.
What a colourful cricket.
What is #4? A caterpiller or certain kind of insect? Very interesting angle of an interesting bug.
The FL looks so humble.

Thanks for sharing.
Cheers..
