Hanging on a thread, a 1cm long caterpillar

One cool morning by the garden..............

Alec, nice detail and colour. I would have consider placing the caterpillar more to the right. Nevertheless - wish I had these moments.

You're right Amar, caught it just right when the wind is not blowing in the morning. Other it will be impossible to get it sharp. It is really tiny!

Alec, that is a nice catch! very funny. Pnina

A marvelous macro with the perfect title. --jim

Alec, you must got a good eyesight to spot this. Beautiful close up.

Pnina, Jim thanks for your comments. Spencer, it is really tiny when I spotted it. I should have taken some when it was moving to show the different shapes. Too late though, perhaps next time when I see it again.

Excellent macro,Alec. Apt caption too. Better luck next time:-)

Alec, very interesting, great details & lighting, perfect composition too, well captured!!! Best regards.

Neat picture Alec you got the lighting just right. Well done.

 

DK.

unique!

Alec, I can across something similar yesterday but couldn't get the shot properly. Mine was moving like crazy, swinging all over the place. I have even more appreciation for the image now.

Thanks guys for all the response.

 

Amar, appreciate your input, now that you have experience it yourself you know the problems of shooting macro a fast moving bug. Patience my friend and hopefully no wind. ^_^

You do have lot of patience, Alec. Feel like i am looking through a magazine of National geography. BTW, how did you get such a one tone background in the backyard like that?. Regards, Tanya.

Simple Tanya, it's shot very near the caterpillar and the background is a dark brown wall. Appreciate your kind comments. Yopu have a lovely portfolio too.
