Not sure what kind of bug this is, but it's TINY and looks like a speck of dust or goose down. I think it's some kind of gnat or midge.

PP included: rotate, curves/levels, color sat, contrast, Neat Image, save for Web.

Great macro shot, nice use of frame...I like the colors in the background as they add an impressionistic flair to this image!

Lovely macro. For the challenge tie-in, I'll assume with the title that this bug (which is very unusual) is progressing up the blade.

Wow! Cool photo and a stage of life I don't think I've ever caught before. Red in background is distracting, but overall a very clean and interesting shot.
