Not a pest! The house centipede actually goes after other household pests, and doesn't leave messy webs like spiders.

I like how you presented this and the title of course is spot on. I wonder if you flipped the image or it was shot as is.

The hi-key works very well with this one. It makes me think of a paramecium.

I like the effect a lot.

An intriguinh shot and an interesting choice of treatment. I might have turned it 180 degrees myself.

Ewwww I hate those things! I guess they love eating spiders so if you can get past the creepy aspect of them, maybe they're a good pest. I just can't get past how they look when they scamper up a wall. Some of them get fairly big too. Ewww! I like the post processing, it worked well and singling out the bug. I counted 30 legs too so it is quads times 5!
