Hello Fransisco,
An amazing macro! The thoracic extension of this species is fantastic, almost like fiction!
Clearly this was a very good original and is of high technical quality as it is, but what is most striking is not only the warning coloration of these tree-hopper bugs, but the extra warning effect of the two together on the stem. I wonder if this is the usual behaviour of this species?
Thank you for sharing this excellent contribution to TN!
Best regards,
Ivan

great symetric pic, TFS Ori

Hi Fransisco,

Great MACRO shot in a lovely composition.

This is unbelievable, Francisco!
The symmetrical position of these black and white bugs on the stem defies logic.
This is surely one of the most interesting nature pictures ever seen on TN.
Thanks for sharing it and best regards.

Hello Francisco,
This is an amazing image.
I love the symmetry in this composition.
The black and white colors make a striking contrast.
Interesting lines in the designs of the bugs.
Fantastic shot.

Hello Fancisco !
I have seen your gallery for the fist time, it's wonderful, and there are so many amazing shots ! I really love this one, for several reasons : the insects are strange, beautiful and pefectly captured ; the perfect symetry of the picture is amazing ; the technical aspects (details, colors, composition...) of the photo are excellent. Very well done !
Valérie.

Hello Francisco,
thanks, i am proud that you have chosen my picture on your favorite list;
an oustanding capture of these insects, excellent POV and composition, good sharpness and marvellous natural colours, very well done.
TFS
Best regards
Maurizio
