Beautiful. I love how the insect is sharp against the soft background.

@koalagardens @traceylee @shutterbug49 @boxplayer Thanks - I went into the garden to photograph Camassias after a heavy shower of rain, and got this little bonus!

[Carey Martin]

I love the bug!!

[John Mather]

@careymartin It does look rather cute there!

[Madeleine Pennock]

That is rather gorgeous!

Love Camassia and even the bug......greenfly? Steady hand there, John......or did you use one of those three legged contraptions that I hate?

@nannapurple Hi Tricia, I thought it was a greenfly at first, but now I think it’s a grasshopper. No tripod involved, just a steady hand, a quick focusing system and a lot of luck. I had to hold the Camassia with my left hand to stop it blowing around in the wind.
