Beautiful close-up photos of different insects captured by talented French photographer David Chambon.
Amazing photos were taken in the morning with the help of a macro lens.

I am tipping he just sprayed them with water!

^ I agree with Ben, he sprayed the insects with water. Or may be he captured the photos after rain?

I doubt most creatures would tolerate being covered in water very long after a rain so I’m with everyone else, he sprayed them with a mister to get the effect.

If he sprayed them with a water mister don’t you think they would fly away? There’s this thing called patience, and this photographer has mastered it beautifully. Well done.

Exactly, Amanda.
No, Gert, not everyone is so petty as to belittle this artists work simply because we can’t conceive of doing it ourselves. Not to mention your limited understanding of how water coalesces on objects during morning mists (i.e., no rain required!)
These are brilliant and, even better, enlightening. Thanks for sharing!

I would say he probably did not spray them or anything like that.
It’s probably photographed early in the morning, when there is a lot dew water from mists and the insects are still pretty stiff.
If he would just spray them, they would fly away for sure.
Great shots!

i agree oliver, its dew and they need the sun to warm them up until before they can shake the water off.
