Thanks Robert! I took about 8 shots of this bug, and only one was clear enough to post. I am thinking I may need to get acquainted with the manual focus on my L830?
Thank you Victor! He’s much prettier through the lens + cropping than my human eyes recognized. Nice how photography helps us appreciate the world, isn’t it?
I had a similar fellow haze me the other day in the garden, finally nailing me on the back of the neck. Perhaps the ‘hand rubbing’ gesture is delight at the prospect of a meal…

it performed respectably, but I had to give it a little boost with Photoshop Elements. 🙂
