This poor Stink Bug was on his back on my porch and while I was photographing it, it suddenly started spinning in a circle in an attempt to right itself. There's just something about this picture that cracks me up and I'm not even sure why. Haven't posted lately - looking for something original to come up with. This is all I got so far... :)

lol, yes it's definitely unique! I can't say I've seen a shot of a twirling bug! Fun capture :) nicely done catching the movement with a slower shutter speed...
