This is my favorite underwater picture so far. It shows a bunch of Simuliidae (black fly) larvae clinging to a rock and swinging in the fast current. There are also at least four visible mayfly nymphs, probably in the family Baetidae. In this picture: True Fly Family Simuliidae (Black Flies) and Mayfly Family Baetidae (Blue-Winged Olives). From Eighteenmile Creek in Wisconsin.

Light reflected from air bubbles left ghostly wisps in this fairly long exposure picture beneath a riffle. It's got an accidental artistic look. From Eighteenmile Creek in Wisconsin.

Several Baetid mayfly nymphs cling to this rock. There are also some clumps of small stones which hold strong caddisfly larvae. In this picture: Mayfly Family Baetidae (Blue-Winged Olives) and Insect Order Trichoptera (Caddisflies). From Eighteenmile Creek in Wisconsin.

A peculiar mayfly nymph clings to a log. I'm not sure if it's a Heptageniid clinger or a flat-bodied Ephemerellid crawler, but I don't believe it's a species I've collected yet. In this picture: Insect Order Ephemeroptera (Mayflies). From Eighteenmile Creek in Wisconsin.
