wild flowers Suckers

Note sure if these two are related, but both seem to be sucking from

this False Rue Anemone flower.

I can see that you are interesting in Aphids as well Robert. Very damaging and strange looking insects. This image would be a bit challenging for me.  In order to achieve exacting detail in the flower and the insects I imagine I would have to be further away?? If you don't mind, could you explain how you achieved this image. Did you use a tripod?? I love Macro work and am always aiming at becoming better.

Sincere regards, Gail
