Thank you so much! This little critter wears beautiful outerwear and I'd never seen one like him before. Blessings ...

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this in the driveway of my sister’s home in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan.

Time

Good question. Not sure. He has a shadow, so it wasn’t high noon, but other than that …

Lighting

This was taken in natural light.

Equipment

I believe this was taken with a little point and shoot camera.

Inspiration

The color! I’ve never seen a bug that color and he was so visible standing on the rough stones of the driveway in his (her?) elegant and colorful outerwear.

Editing

No.

In my camera bag

For the most part, I take my Canon (can’t remember which one I took with me that time), an extra fully-charged battery, and a cleaning cloth in dreary weather.

Feedback

Yes. Don’t forget to look down. This lowly, though colorful, specimen has brought more attention to my work than 99% of all the thousands upon thousands of photos I’ve taken. He might be just a bug, but he’s a mighty one!
