I checked a bug book, but couldn't find this one, nice compo and bug

Can't identify, but incredibly sharp detail. Great capture!

Ohhh!! Don't bugg with me LOL... Like the colors on it! .....really lovely photo!!! Close and soooooooooooooo clear!!!!!!!

Very pretty :D Great DOF and colors in this macro :D

Predacious stink bugs I believe, maybe wrong. not wrong about it being a superb macro Adults have a shield shaped body and overlapping wing tips. They emit a strong odor when disturbed. Nymphs are more rounded and colored red and black when young. The older nymphs are red, black, yellow-orange, and cream colored in bands and blotches. Many stink bugs are insect pests, but the spined soldier bug and twospotted stink bugs are beneficial. Predacious stink bugs feed on Colorado potato beetles, Mexican bean beetles, and various caterpillar larvae.

No clue my friend...but it's captured excellently, clean! Lucky for you I got the day off or some slaps would be in order for you! Enjoy your time off, and stay away from them M&M's...maybe just a few! Aloha!

Hey kiddo :) (That's what the elderly says to the younguns) lol anyway, GREAT shot! Glad you uploaded it, too ... its definately good enough for your gallery :) Until Jerone shows up, we can just call it a bug :) That's a safe bet lol Have a great day ... take care of yourself.

A spring or summer photo! its good for us.... have a great evening.

Very nice macro Zacko. (Oops! That rhymed didn't it!) LOL But seriously... lovely image. I'm also thinking it's a member of the 'stink bug' family. Those guys are hard to forget. Look at how long it's antennae are. WOW!!! Quick, someone figure out what it is for the rest of us too.

It's a suberbe Marco.. really great. Looks like one of Jeroen.. I think it is a click beetle species, but I am not sure about that.

You're lucky to have time out work !. Fantastic macro here. Curious little bug

Superb macro! I love the bug (only on a photo -lol-) but also those little white flowers and the elegant presentation! bravo!!! Have nice holidays!

Yep back to work for me tomorrow :( Stunning colours and macro Andreas. Have fun on your days off :)

Awesome close-up of this yuck-bug! I like the green gradient border too -- great presentation!

Marvellous macro , well done!! Bravo

No idea, but it is a lovely shot!

The dof and clarity are spot on! Certainly good enough for me my sweet Swedish! The colors are sharp and luminous! I think this is a really cool shot sweety-pie! As for what kind of insect it is.....blank O_o

Very clean and very nice macro !

Great shot, don't know what he is though:):):)..V

Hi Andreas.I-wishen kunde jag berta dig att vad denna smgrabb , bara jag har ingen id Nra maskinskriver av skalbagge skade jag antar, men du egentligen mte att fra en bugspert lika Jeroen utan hsyn, den ett utmkt tillfgatagande. Sharp fokuserar, med en ursnygg klar och lysande white f att betona reden av den little blighteren, suh. Jag ser att du anvder gammala foto som jag hoppas dig fyndet tillflet att ta nya shotsstunder, du av fr arbete. Den skade ett medlidande f att dig framriktat ska inte fortsta, som ditt avbildar har ft mer v och fbtrar, hela tiden. Fkanske nra mer collectibles, som du gjorde att sbrunnen dig hade en unik stil av presentationen f dem. Jag fvades inte f att ha att de gjorde den in i en tidskrift en annan viktig upload och, som alltid, jag ser framriktat till se ditt arbete. Lycklig 2006 och all det mest v till dig och din. - Marlene: ^)
