another great shot
I always enjoy your photos. They are always well lit and composed (ie: beautiful as photos) while being scientifically sound (ie: good for identification, or showing the fine details, like this photo does).
Great Work!

Appreciate thie kind words...
When the bug is cooperative, I try to provide a balance between composition and good angles for identification. My gift to Bug Guide :^).
