Green Shield bug (Palomena prasina)

Eye to eye!
I spent ages following this little fella around the head of my Alium flower, even though I knew he was eating my plant it was worth it as he looked so amazing through the lens, at one point he was watching me as much as I him lol!

Best in original!

Great macro shot, Carole. Outstanding detail on this guy, and I'll bet he liked what he saw.:) Vote

Amazing macro work, I cant do this type of photography anywhere near as good. They do release a rotten smell when touched.

From the True Bugs. Beautiful sharp macro. Glad he wasn't a Stink Bug ;-)

Superb detail, and much nicer than a Green Shield Stamp.
