Phenomenal! I love how the lighting seems to only illuminate the caterpillar and makes it glow. ~BV~

Looks like a string of eyes and a lipstick mouth. Wonderful photo.

Like a jewel! I looks like he's about done with one side of the leaf stem, time to turn around.

Tout en longueur, c’est joliment photographié avec ce fond foncé.

You can tell it's false by all that 'makeup!' ;-) Cool find and nice capture!
