Hi catherine,

What a beautifull photo. First of all the nice and saturated colors strike you. Then viewer is surprised by the excelent DOF and therefore nice rendering of details from larvaes body as well as flowers. Composition is also very good and the black-orange larvae on the orange flowers with black spots look great.

Congratulations,
Cristian

Hello Catherine,
What a wonderful splash of colour!! Pity about the flowers being eaten by the larvae but they certainly posed very nicely for you!
Brilliant capture in beautiful light and colours. Detatils are very clear and stand out against the soft green background. A very fine composition too.
Many thanks and regards, Ulla

Hi Catherine
A lovely shot of these caterpillars. Good use of f/18 to get a good DOF. Nice colours and exposure too.
Kind Regards

Hello Catherine,
Great capture of the Cinnabar moth caterpillars on Ragwort, showing up sharply and well against a neutral BG in a fine composition.
I find these caterpillars interesting, as they take up the poisons of the Ragwort and display their inedibility by their warning colours. They can also be quite camouflged when they curl up on the flowers while resting.
Thanks for sharing this delight,
Ivan

Hi Catherine, again,
I did'nt comment on this one. But my compliment to you: you find unusual subjects and you put them in a natural context. Again, all is perfect, light, background, DOF. Very well done, Catherine.
Best regards
Dietrich

Bonsoir Catherine
L'ensemble est très beau à mon gout.
Les couleurs 'tons sur tons', sont bien rendues.
Les voraces sont gourmandes, c'est ainsi.
merci pour ce tableau
Amicalement
