These buggers are absolutely everywhere in the woods now, and in large numbers. They may be annoying, but I'd rather have 100 mosquitos on me than one single tick.

I hate them but this photo is stunning!

Thank you! I had to wait a while until one of the countless mosquitoes chose the right spot and orientation so that I could take a photo one-handed with the other hand, and hope that AF did a good joob. Took a couple of tries but it turned out better than I expected.

One-handed? Congrats, it wasn't easy, but the result is perfect! What camera did you use? (I wouldn't have gotten stung, haha)

@arcturus this beast with one hand? Oh wow!
