I don`t have a clue as to what kind of insect this is.The lily of the valley flower that it is on shows how tiny it is.

I think this is just a lady bug without her spots, LOL! Love the curve of the leaves and how you've angled your whole comp in that direction.

Poor little fellow looks like he needs a little body work. Love the color contrasted against the leaves.

Great clarity - check

rule of thirds - check

Super color - check

spot on DOF - check

over all composition - check

I think I checked off all the things that made me put this on my hard drive. I'm sure there's more but you really hit the nail on the head with this fine take.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

Such a great macro! So clear and I love the color of the bug. It's on one of my favorite flowers - lily of the valley! Ours are about to bloom.
