Go back to school before you start saying that stuff. They're MALE mosquitos. It's the females with the bloodsuckers. Males are much larger than females, and have no blood sucker.

my pictured bug isn't even shaped like a mosquito... NOR did it have a bloodsucker... same as female, just not used...
also, notice the antennae aren't even "mosquito-esque"

kthxbye.

Damn, relax man. It looks like a large mosquito from the angle your pic was taken from.

Oh... ok... just wondering.. wasn't criticizing at all... (hopefully it wasn't taken that way )...

I love chopping my pictures after I take them... cuz you can get stuff like THIS, which is so not possible otherwise...

(not mine, BTW)

Criticism is welcome!

I agree the picture came out softer than I wanted. I don't like how the picture gets grainy with abundance of sharpness; like the turn rear left turn signal on the civic.

Meet you half way.

Hey Nakia, I think this might be what you got a photo of, it's called a cranefly, and it's a relative of the mosquito:
