Informatively quite succinct and so very sharp as all of your images are. There is no doubt when you are posting. I can see your perfection or close to it in all of your shots...and this one is no exception. I do appreciate these colours mixed...how it is done, by nature, might be a good study!

Hi Sumon,

I can understand why this bug is a favorite of yours. The color is truly amazing. The details are so sharp and clear that he looks like he will jump off the screen. I love all those shades of green in the setting and background. Beautiful shot!

Hello Sumon,
Yes these Jewelbugs are really asking to be photographed! This is another fine capture from a nice frontal POV showing the head an most of the body in good focus against a suitably OOF natural BG.
Thanks for sharing this beauty,

This is not a bug, Sumon, this is a jewel! It is fantastic, what colours! I am impressed by the beauty of it, you captured its beauty with extreme sharpness and a great pov. These insects seem nice, for once I would easily take it in my hands. Thank you for showing such a beauty with such skills and talent.

He certainly looks very contented, Sumon!

You are right about his lovely colours! But not only is he coloured, he is nicely textured!

Your pov allows us to see not only the details of his body but also how he folds his legs to rest.

Lovely composition!

kind regards,
Bev :-)
Many thanks for your warm comments on 'Shall I feed or shall I sing!'

Hello Sumon,
In the period that i have been absent from TN , i notice you have also added a Cannon into your arsenal.
But yes the Sony still does a great job here,once again one of your shots that prove it is the man and not the machine that can produce the best out of anything.
Lovely macro, stunning sharpness with brilliant colours and lighting.
TFS & Cheers

Hi Sumon, he's not about to blend in with his background. Having an iridescent colour like this, and being very docile, I wonder if the colour is a warning to birds and other predators. Maybe these bugs don't taste so good. This is a great macro of this guy. Actually, having a similar though plain colour behind him maybe makes him stand out better in this shot. Your exposure and angle are very good to minimize highlight issues which I imagine could be a problem with this type. Very nicely done.

Thanks, John
