C'est beau et j'aime particulièrement les couleurs (les tons turquoises). La petite chenille est vraiment belle, toute picotée de blanc. Une belle photo et la note est intéressante. Bonne journée.

A nice shot.
The tones of colour are excellent and good composition also.
Excellent,well done.

Jolie photo pour cette petite chenille, couleurs agréable. J'aurais peut-être cadré différement ;-)

Good DOF and lovely contrast of colours. The way that its tail end is curved almost gives the illusion that the catepillar is dangling from the very top edge of the leaf. Nice capture!

I feel like I can reach out and pick the caterpiller right out of my monitor!

C'est beau la nature. Il suffit de savoir regarder comme vous le faites et un clic on en prend plein les yeux.
Bravo pour cette photo pleine de couleurs et lumineuse.

Excellent title Philippe, and the tones of colours are splendid and good composition also. Lovely!
