It does a trick on my eye. Perhaps I have been up so short and looking so long but it took me a bit to see it...as in can't see the forest for the trees:-) A fine shot and showing the cloaking device is uses by design!

Hi Ulla,

Speaking of camouflage I had to look several times to find the caterpillar. I thought at first there were two leaves. Fascinating shot with excellent details - even of the horn. I look forward to your next post.

Hello Ulla
This is just fantastic...The camera Work is brilliant showing this gloriously camouflaged caterpillar off perfectly against a dark background. I would love to see a picture of him when nature has run its course.
A good weekend to you and Ivan

Hola Ulla, qué bonita composición, una toma nitida con buen color y muy buena luz. En la miniatura en un principio no vi a la oruga, muy buena mimetización. Excelente macro. Un saludo

Hi Ulla . This is a caterpillar which looks so much like a leaf. even the same colour. I like the deep colours in this picture . the green stands out from the brown BG. fine detail in the body of the caterpillar. well done tFS.

Longer break from TN because of my various trips and a lot of interesting pictures from your gallery were overlooked by me. So as you see today it is a good day to watch your pictures much more carefully ;)
Believe me of not but at this moment I have one Sphingidae caterpillar at home - it is Hyles euphorbiae which I try to rear to adult :)
This is nie profile view of very well camouflaged caterpillar. Good contrast and sharpness make this picture nice for watching. Anyway, I am not sure if some noise reduction would not be good idea :)
Friendly yours,
Radomir
