About the Image(s)

Shot at a local nature park in Buffalo, NY. It's a fascinating and colorful bug.

1/1600, f/7, ISO 800 - slightly underexposed using 60-600 lens at 600mm on 7dm2
I used a monopod.

Although I would have liked this shot from a couple of different angles... This was the best as it flew off when my friend tried it.

Not many edits apart from using the SHarpen AI tool to sharpen a bit.

I love bugs! You captured all the details on the plant and on the bug. I recommend to crop on the right ( close to the bug) and on the left, but not as much. I think you image will be much more interesting with more attention to the bug.   Posted: 09/29/2023 20:34:43

Your friend chased it off - the nerve - well the sis a keeper - I like the angle of the plant stalk and it is focused where the bug is, well exposed, very nice.   Posted: 09/30/2023 12:15:15
