 Went out shining a UV flashlight on plants one night searching for glow in the dark subject. Found a yellowish glob on the underside of a leaf, that turned out to be a cluster of insect eggs, about 1 mm wide each. 105 macro lens with three extension tubes, tripod, shutter delay, not focus stacked. Makes me think of fairy tales.

Would have been nice if you had included what kind of eggs those are in your title
