This one is an eye catcher for sure...the colour on this guy and all. Superb work on the macro. This one stands out.

Hi John,

WOW! This is a great macro!!
The DOF is fantastic here and the colours brilliant! This is not a bug that I've ever seen (or like to meet...lol...).
Very well captured and presented!

Hi John,
The most on sharpness! POV and DOF maximize the bit head, that is so big that the rest of animal is out of focus :-). Well done!

Alien Invasion ( LOL ! )

Great macro John! Lovely narrow DOF focusing on the head. Note I would work in balancing the tones to see better the shaded area. I will need to post a WS .

WS added a day later !!!! Sorry for the delay.

Keep on shooting!

Hello John, you captured a very nice macro of this bug.
Even if the dof is shallow, I think that it's perfect here. I love the colours of the bug and its cute antennas.

Very well done! take care and thank you very much for you kind comments in my 11th of may post :)

Excellent shot and well done on the composition. It's a beauty. Just a wee bit under exposed. Robert's w.s. helped.

John,
Very nice macro. What a cool lloking bug. I love the good focsed head on this bug, the DOF falls of rather quickly which makes the head appear to be even more in focus. Good composition and notes.
Very nice work,
Scott

I remeber seeing something very similar but totally green. But in macro like that! I hope this is a macro :)
All those little dotsa are very nice for texture. A natural camouflage i'm shure!
