Description


Hi there. This small guy (about 6-8mm) I found in the garden at the wall of the garage. He was nice and friendly and let me take some shots. Jeff asked me in a past comment how close I can get with the macro - about 50-30mm to the surface of the object I think. I'm not sure because I'm always behind the cam *g*

He's a little bit irridescent too! Cool looking critter, and of course, excellent macro- I see you are getting a lot of mileage from that lens and its really paying off!

I could be wrong but it looks like a "Green Immigrant Leaf Weevil" Superb capture. :)

Fantastic! Reminds me of the green shuttle on Red Dwarf, aptly named "The Bug".
