Well, I got my (young) Birch Shield Bug ([SIZE=-1]Elasmostethus interstinctus) [/SIZE]photo for the summer.

The late flowering Gladioli is at he attraction here - at least for contrast anyway! The vibrant colour of the petals allow the vivid green of this shield bug to stand out loud and proud.

natural light only, just the Sigma 105 (no tubes).

C&C as always.
