Hi Ignasi,
Wonderful shot of this Weevil and I like that longish snout. Very neat and sharp image with lovely colours and perfect use of back-lighting. It seems to have camouflaged itself well. Excellent DOF, POV and composition. Kudos.
TFS.

Hello Ignasi, I love the colours in this picture and this insect is absolutely amazing! And it looks small if we compare it to the hair of the plants, it is also translucid. Fantastic shot, so close and sharp, thank you Ignasi. I hope for you that you had some rain!

Ciao Ignasi, non conoscevo questo curioso insetto, grazie interessante anche la nota, ottimi dettagli e macro tecnicamente ben eseguita, bravo, ciao Silvio

Hi Ignasi,
you present this Lixus beetle very well, in backlight and with great sharpness. The composition is interesting, the plant stem full of hairs. Maybe you could crop the thistle away that distracts from the composition.

Bonjour Ignasi,
Je retrouve ta galerie avec plaisir, après quelques temps d'absence. Je m'arrête sur ce charançon, joliment mis en scène dans un univers hostile de poils et d'épines...
Amicalement
Hervé
