Hello Sumon!
Nice capture of tortoise beetle, with good DOF and sharpness. I like it.
Anyway, you have some small mistake in the note - just the last word - there is "Hispinae" but it should be "Cassidinae" :>
Greetings,
Radomir

Hi Sumon Da,
A nice capture of this beautiful tortoise beetle. It is the similar sp. that I captured and Radomir (cicindela) helped me with the ID. Very well composed with sharp details. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Hello Sumon,
Great macro of a species of Tortoise Beetle taken in fine lighting from an excellent POV with nice sharpness on the underside of a leaf.
It is interesting to see that this species not only has the 'shell' for protection but mimics the colouring of a Ladybird to make it look poisonous - double protection!
TFS this beauty,
Best wishes, Ivan

I should imagine you were super pleased to get this one so well..It looks like something I would have overlooked...I try to keep my peripheral vision going 24/7, but small even though well coloured, sometimes escapes me. It certainly did not escape you. Very nice image and such an unusual looking insect! I am off to look for more images of same..

My first sighting of this amazing looking Beetle, Sumon. I guess it is a novelty for all.
As usual, a razor sharp and artistically composed shot. The Bettle looks like it is made of fine glass. Perfect details and colours, and those in-focus veins on the wide leaf make a lovely background.
Thanks and best regards.

This Tortoise Beetle looks very much like a ladybird, but I expect it's a lot bigger.
Great sharpness and clarity.
Stunning colours.

Very well done, Sumon!

Hi Sumon!

Isn't it a surprising and strange creature? You have put it so well on stage! The technical aspects of the picture are perfect as usually. I like the narrative notes very much. Indeed, sometimes the way that lead us to a picture is as interesting as the content of the picture.

Kind regards

Sumon, un precioso documento de este tipo de insectos que no conocía. Ya no digo nada de luz, colores y esas cosas las tienes superadas y veo que te recreas, como siempre, en mejorar la toma artísticamente.
Un abrazo: Josep Ignasi Tejedor.

Hi Sumon.
Some time I have missed this terrific picture. Now I correct my oversight. Wonderful insect (I have no seen this species yet), amazing scene at whole and brilliant reproduction of all features and details of the subject. DOF is really great. My congratulations add many thanks for sharing.
