OK, I woke up too early today. 4:30am…woke up, could not go back to sleep. My usual time is 6:30 AM. So what did I do for those extra two hours? I was bored so I took a stroll around the block at 5:30. It was a comfy cozy 72 degrees and I had the little Leica V-Lux 20 in hand and I shot a couple of quick macro photos just to see how close I could get. So I snapped a few and when I looked at the files on screen I thought it would be fun to throw this up this morning.
Just for fun I figured I would post a crop here and see if anyone could guess what it is. Ha ha…BTW, my full V-Lux 20 review is coming soon. I have the camera for a few more days and have been testing out all of its features. The cool thing is that it fits in my front pocket and has a zoom range of 25-300mm. Also, the video has been improved over the HD video in the D-Lux 4 with AF, smooth zoom and better video and audio quality.
So…anyone have any guesses as to what this may be? If someone guesses right I will post the full photo. If not, I will post the answer and full photo anyway within 24 hours 🙂
UPDATE – 8:09 AM – Waruna Gomis got it right! It’s Cockroach Legs!
Was walking and saw this dead roach on the sidewalk. GROSS! I hate these things but could not resist snapping a quick shot 🙂 BTW, I am working on my V-Lux 20 review right now..will be up this weekend. My Fuji GF670 review is being pushed back until next week as I want to get a few more color rolls through it. Tim A, still hungry?
Try it stir fried with some sys sauce 🙂
that camera is like a microscope!

Oh oh … was a cockroach harmed for the sake of this post? PETA is going to be contacting you Steve!

Some parts (legs) of insect?
Cockroach Legs !
thorns.. possibly rose bush ?
I would guess something like Lobster or Crab legs…
I’m gonna have to go with thorns from a rosebush twig.
Grasshopper legs?
Porshe Owner?
Looks kinda like some very spiky crab legs. Made me a bit hungry 🙂
Bugs legs, type unknown, but known in AZ.
A close up of a crustacean of some sort ?
Is it a dead cactus?
I’ll give it a shot. A prehistoric spikey carnivorous plant sprouting off the arid grounds of the neighborhood playground!
Did I get it right? 🙂
