Nice sharp macro with great colours. It's quite an attractive insect up close.

Thanks Dave!

Mississippi Belle, nice clear shot and even lighting. I thought the eyes were more saturated in real life.

Thanks Ken. Yes they usually are much more saturated and solid color on others I've photographed. I didn't do anything to desaturate them. I like the way they look, it adds interest.
