A juvenile Harlequin bug, no doubt looking for the ESC key...

Hey Simon,

Pretty cool that it happened to be on the 'B' key. I would crop off the RHS until the key edge. Nice bug shot.

Very well timed, or placed. I'd agree that the right doesn't really add to the shot, so a bit of judicial cropping could be in order.

Simon,

Is this the preliminary work that you're doing for your new book, "The Photography Alphabet"? If so, it's a great start. If not, you should consider it.

And just another 25 letters to go.

Hee hee - thanks Gary - ever the inspiration, aren't you?! :D

Macca - I should be so lucky! Craig was right, poor little guy was very gently shepherded around 'til he walked over the right spot! I tried the crop but he looked a bit cramped against the right edge. I might try cleaning that side up a bit instead

If you smooth out the dust on the keys then the current crop should be fine :) Good luck with E for Earth then :)

I would have thought Kodak's tombstone might have been "K".

So I did, Greg, so I did. Perhaps it should be "Drop-out"!
