Awesome picture of my favorite kind of bug. I have those guys all over my house in the summer, I think they're the only pets I can have without sneezing. The color patterns on the tentacles are amazing.

Great shot. I like how you captured it balancing quite happily on the tip of the leaf.

thanks. He did seem to be posing for me, unlike most of them.

Woah! Lovely TC. Nice rear end on this one, eh?

how many shots did it take to get that one right?

thanks for all the comments. I usually take two or three. When I first started macro, it was more 20 shots and even then i was lucky if I nailed the DOF and focus.

I love all the detail on the bug and on the leaf. I like how he's balancing on the tip of the leaf. Great photo.:thumbup:
