 Teaching the Photography Merit Badge to some Scouts ... one of them (happened to be my son) discovered this very interesting insect (looks like an Assassin bug). We had decent light and the IS on his P&S camera worked pretty well. He was quite pleased with his catch ... I smiled when I overheard the story being told to his mother. :-)
