PS Decided to take part too, if only for the sake of popularizing entomology ( http://fotki.yandex.ru/users/entomology/ ) wink.gif

Alexander, photos are good, but to win against deceivers unrealistic.
It seems to me. as well through the eyes of a dragonfly it's not clean either... An amateur with a "homemade" magnifying nozzle can not remove it. However, this is my IMHO, and maybe EGO...

And I couldn't resist: I went to create competition
True, I suffered a lot with uploading the image, and there are still some moderators-censors who will discuss it.

it is impossible to win against deceivers.


Dear colleagues! All these moves with voting, cheating and foul play are known to me in advance! I do not pretend to any place at all, and even more smile.gifso, I said," for the sake of popularizing " our science, no more. I really ask you NOT to vote specifically for my photos, NOT to wind up their rating, etc. Let people just look at insects and spiders and admire that there are such creatures.

And it is called well: "Flowers for your beloved". We will leave the manure to the mother-in-law.

Kravchik flew from field to field, sat on a flower lol.gif

The situation there is, of course, terrible.. Not only do they blatantly lie about other people's photos, but everyone supports her in the comments.. idiots.. they don't give a shit about the rules.. for the first time they saw a fly in magnification, and they think that it's brilliant to put up such a photo and write anything just because it's new to them.. smile.gif

I would have taken part myself, but I don't have a camerafrown.gif, I'll go to a friend - he's a pro photographer, I'll give him a few insects to eat-maybe he'll win smile.gif

I didn't find any other parts of the flower (or rather the plant)

Yeah, I looked it up.. There are good photos, but VERY many stolen, otfotozhoplennyh (and they are probably also stolen).. There is a cool photo there - a newly made scarab-only from a sandy mink..

It seems that Yandex is simply promoting its new project with this contest, which is not yet very close to Picas, and similar projects on Mail and Rambler. lol.gif
But it's still interesting. I decided to support the topic and posted it your top three photos. shuffle.gif
And there really are already quite a few interesting photos. I think that entomological interest can really awaken in some participants and viewers. And that's a good thing. yes.gif

Yes, I've seen comments from visitors surprised by the unusual nature and variety of entomofauna. Maybe soon on molbiol will appear smile.gifSo under the photos write ads to the site-<url> entomolozhi Come in, etc.
There are some curious friends who remind me of entomology enthusiasts, but you can't tell for sure..
