This is my first macro post. icon_biggrin.gif Found a couple of caterpillars and decided it was a good opportunity to try my new 100mm Macro lens. icon_biggrin.gif Eyed Tiger Moth Caterpillar hanging out on a branch. I found sizing the photos harder than taking them. Comments welcome.

    Almost looks like a flower head rather than a caterpillar :)- nice shot.

    I am new as well. However, I cannot see the caterpillar. But, I must say if you want to learn about macrophotography, there is only one person to refer to and he is Brian, (Lord Vetinari) He knows the LOT, and no one can equal him and he is so good and polite with everything he does. What Brian has taught me is wonderful so my advice is listen to Brian.

    Take another look ... it is the orange and black "flower" that is the caterpillar!
