Caterpillar - Almost Eye Level
by Laura Milholland

Novato, CA

I took a couple of shots of him from above, and decided I'd much prefer a "down low" viewpoint.
He was moving along amazingly fast, so it was difficult to get him all in focus, but this one's pretty sharp.
Possibly a Salt Marsh Moth caterpillar.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Great detail on the caterpillar and soft bokeh in the background.

I love the focus and the viewpoint. It would not have been as good if taken from a standing position.

We used to call these "wooly caterpillars", but I have no idea what their real name is. Nice job!

Focus is good on this furry critter. How did you take the shot? Tele zoom? Good one for perspective.
