Wow such great color. Focusing on those magnificent wings instead of the head/eyes was the right choice IMO. Great shot.

You do get some great bugs where you live Brian - and make good use of them too! I'm tempted to say "pity about the weather you sometimes get", but on looking out the window and seeing yet another miserable rainy day, I'll keep quiet on that topic

I agree, the wildlife over here is remarkable. Now and then we do get a wee bit of rain. But never snow and coming from a place that on occasion got six feet of snow in 24 hours and -40 temperatures no snow counts for a lot Originally Posted by billtils

Nice capture of a beautiful critter. Still photography reveals creation in ways that otherwise would never be seen(by either young or old eyes). Definitely opened my eyes.

Opened my eyes to0 - I had no idea they exist in that red color. It looks like a Chinese lacquered object. Thanks!

For more than 15 years we have been stewards of this garden. Beautiful is what we have been aiming for. Originally Posted by lovelife65
