| Yikes!—where's the bug spray? This cool (or creepy—your choice)) model of an anapheles mosquito has been on display at the Museum of Natural History since 1917. [To see more shadows, go here.] |

yikes is right! I'd hate to get bit by this mosquito.
ReplyDeleteYikes (3)!
ReplyDeleteThe overall chiaroscuro and colors are really nice in your photo.
Not to worry. When they get that big their eyesight goes haywire, as you can see from this guy who had to be scraped off the side of a building it didn’t notice, here.
That is quite an unnerving sight! Those long legs cast some rather impressive shadows!
ReplyDeleteEgads! Gives me the creeps, not to mention what it must do to these guys.
ReplyDeleteYikes! My son thought this was a cool picture... We recently visited NY but I couldn't talk my family into going... Next time - lol
ReplyDeleteHugs, Antonella :-)
P.S. I am also participating in SSS2, and I've created a free printable / digi with the shadow quote this week...

Glad it is in a museum. They are big here, but not that extreme.
ReplyDeleteThis museum was a short distance from my grandparents and I remember many adventures there as a young child.
ReplyDeleteThis is a bit scary and he would be difficult to swat!

the photo is beautiful, but I hate mosquitoes. greetings from Romania. have a nice week.
ReplyDeleteThis gives me creeps wahhhh. I hate mosquitoes but I like your photo.
ReplyDeleteSet of Eyes Shadow. Have a great week ahead.
Excellent photo. The size of the mosquito reminds me of those old sci-fi movies where "radiation" created giant insects that tried to take over the earth.
ReplyDeleteEven tiny mosquitoes are annoying. I can't imagine having to tolerate one this big!
ReplyDeleteA SHADOW THE SIZE OF THE SUN
If I had a shadow the size of the sun,
I’m not sure how fast I’d be able to run,
Or if I could flee from its ravenous jaws,
While keeping away from its razor-sharp claws!
