NYMPHS
Newly emerged nymphs are red and stay on the eggs mass for 48 hours or longer. In this time they darken in color to a reddish brown. The immature bugs must shed their skins 5 times before becoming winged adults. At each molt the bug increases in size, growing form 1/16 inch newly emerged to 1/2 inch at the fifth and last nymphal stage. All nymphs are about as broad as long, dark in color, with red and white or yellow markings on their bodies. The fourth and fifth nymphal stages may be two color phases - light to dark green or black - with characteristic yellow, red and green markings. Immature stink bugs in the 2nd - 4th nymphal stages are often mistaken for lady bird beetles, but close observation will show that nymphs do not have wings, and they also have glands that emit the strong, characteristic odor.

Hi Vicma
I saw many of these bugs when I was on holiday in Crete in May this year. You have captured the colours well, good sharp detail too. The background is well blurred to make the subject stand out.

Hi Vicma

A lovely macro with nice sharp details of this colourful little stinker. The subject shows off well against that neutral BG and the colours are well defined. I also appreciate your notes with excellent info on the various stages of this insect's life.

Well done and TFS.

... y si además le pones ese fondo aún es más bella. El enfoque roza la perfección y le sacas buen partido a ese bello juego de colores gracias a la buena luz existente. Original, efectivo y calculado encuadre. Mucho realismo. Una gran fotografía en definitiva.

Un abrazo Víctor: Josep Ignasi.

A fine capture of this young and beautiful bug, Vicma.
The focus, clarity and colours are phenomenal here and that plain noiseless BG does wonders to the subject.
Thanks and regards.

Hola Vicma!
Very nice picture of Nezara viridula larva (by the way, the first part of Latin name shoudl be written in capital letter, not small :>). I like composition and delicate tones.
Best regards,
Radomir

Hola Vicma, un punto de vista diferente, buena exposición, nitida y con naturales tonos de color. Un saludo

Hi Vicma!

I'm impressed by the quality of the details in your picture. The sharpness is superb, the colours are fantastic, too and it certainly was not easy to set the good lighting with the reflections on the left of the insect. You managed all this very well. From my point of view, the empty space on the right is a little bit too important. Cropping or simply flipping the picture horizontally could help.

Kind regards

Markus

Hi Nick, great macro with splendid details and excellent sharpness, perfect focus and wonderful blurry BG, very well done, bravo, ciao Silvio

Hola vicma, espectacular tiro, buena foto muy colorida y bien marcada nitida preciosa...
Cariñosos Saludos

Muy buenas Victor
Jorobarse que pedazo macrazo y acabo de comprobar que el equipo crece y con grandes resultados por lo que veo.
No se si te comenté que el 100-400 también lo puedes utilizar para macrear, con un anillo de extensión o dos te acorta bastante la distancia de enfoque por lo que a "bichejos" grandes les puedes tirar a placer ya que no se asustan tanto y encima saca unos fondos "super" como dirían los pijos.
Si no los tienes te los recomiendo, pero compra los kenko que valen tres veces menos y son igual, ojo con comprarlos por internete que venden unos que dicen que valen, los venden por 20 euritos, pero al final no valen para nada ya que no tienen los contactos de enfoque y los dan para cámaras eos....
Bueno un abrazote,

Que tal Mikal? no le dá por las "afotos"
