Description
This is an iris in my yard--I didn't see the bug till I uploaded the foto. He adds a special touch, don't you think??

Beauty and the Beast inside? Interesting capture. Aloha
Wonderful shot, whether or not insect was there. Wonderful colors for an Easter Sunday. Well done.
Hey there Mar! I love the water drops on the flower and to capture the bug in there is a bonus.. Great photo :) Hope youve been well xx
Very nice. And on the right side, it almost looks like a walking stick or praying mantis too. Probably just a stem, but kind of neat anyways. Hope you had a great Easter. Aloha
Cool shot!
yes, he does wonderful colors warm hugs, Linda
Lovely shot of the Earwig lol no I mean the Iris. Lovely colour and the droplets on the pedals look great.. Excellent Posting.
Well that is a interest story - did you check the inside of your camera :) he seems front and center here - fun shot !
Looks a bit like a nasty critter though! Great added bonus with this beautiful image Marilyn! :)
'Ere-we-go again! (sorry) Some had to say it, I'm afraid. The little b's eat the petals of my dahlias but I cant kill them, they are such good mothers. I like the pic, too!
very nice capture
Those pointed back ends always give me the shivers...great find and bonus capture!
Yes it does, wonderful capture!
Euwwwww! No. LOL! Love the crocus, but earwigs give me the heebie-jeebies!
Wow! Wonderful flower and colors. Excellent capture!
Striking magenta streaked colors and textures in this magnifico macro, Maz, and the lower life form adds a bit of irony to the whole image. Overall, a top notch bit of photography.
looks like a good old fashion ear wig, I have seen a million of them suckers lol. nice capture
cool to get bugs too.
Oh, she's gorgeous. I like earwigs as much as I like woodlice and you can always tell the males from the females by their little calipers. I forgot what the fancy-schmancy name for them is, but females have sleeker ones...males possess more curved ones that look more ominous and are equally useless. At any rate, I love these little critters, but have seen precious few of them lately. They're good for your garden too...sort of; keep them well fed with compost debris and smaller critters and they'll avoid treating your garden like a salad. Earwig populations have declined a bit in Chicago, so I'm glad to see this little lady. As for the flower. WOW! More gorgeous-osity! Marvelous work, and well...since it has an earwig in it I'm touched even more. Stunning! Do you have other shots of this little lady? By the way, those little tweezers on back are totally useless...they only raise up and open a bit to mimic the mandibles of something terrifying whenever the earwig in question encounters someone or something in need of a good bluff. Wonderful shot!
Beautiful capture wirh great color and veining. I like the lighting also. I'll pass on the ear wigger. Dana
