Aphids in pile

[HansTrapp]

I find these creatures both utterly repulsive in their clusters and fascinating. And I'm surprised that Dante didn't include such a swarm in his circles of hell.

I love this for some reason. The B&W tones, the luminosity and interesting textures, the focal fall-off, the quirky composition.

I'm with you on how creepy they are but its an impressive shot.
