Creeping Denim

This creepy crawler was crawling on my denim jeans so instead of brushing him off, I decided to photograh him and put him in the spot light (I brushed him off later)

Michael,

nice job on this inchworm or catarpillar(?). I like the colors and the out of focus pattern of your jeans is a great background.
I had a similar guy last summer, but not on the jeans. Instead he crawled on the ground and my dad picked him up with a leave:

I like the different textures Michal. I would have definately flicked it off without taking a picture of it.

Thanks
Thanks--Sebastian and Eric..

Sebastian--thanks for including your shot as well. Also an interesting creepy crawler. The green leaf seems more like a natural setting than my jeans

Eric--I will do anything for the sake of art

Hi Michal.......those spikes are usually a warning, and never recommended to touch anything your not sure if it might hurt you or not.

Some of those caterpillars have tiny barbs that imbed in your skin if you touch them, and can be quite nasty to get out.

Your little fellow looks like a bristles of a brush doesn't he

Hi Skippy--

Thanks for the warning. I'll take that into consideration in the future.

All the best
