[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This small Hemiptera-larva appears to be well protected - on the one hand by the 'roof' and on the other hand by its colors which match with those of the leafs. So, this bug may escape your view.
Identification of bug-larvae is not easy and, thus, I can't give a species name here. Perhaps, a specialist is able to help.
I found this creature on leafs of Impatiens glandulifera (Balsaminaceae) growing along a small rivulet.

Body length: about 10 mm.
Uncropped picture.

Hi Peter,
Greatly capturing this green bug [not buck!]. Superb shot. Sharp and clear. Nice details.

Bonjour,
Sympathique insecte. Toujours difficile à mettre au point car ils sont larges et épais.
Bonne journée.

Excellent "sandwich" shot. The insect is in perfect focus, which is often difficult on macro shots. Congratualtions!

Hi Peter,
Excellent of this bug under shade. Nicely focused with good pov, dof and composition. Very well done.
