Colourful Colorvitamin Insects
I went through my insect photos to find something appropriate for @kalemandra's Colorvitamin challenge; these two seemed to fit the bill:
A caterpillar of the lackey moth (Malacosoma neustria), ringelrups in Dutch:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO200, f8, 1/50s
I couldn't find an English name for this one; the species is called Chrysolina varians, veelkleurig goudhaantje in Dutch:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO640, f5.6, 1/125s
Thanks for watching!
Nice click and pictures
wow absolutely amazing colors :)
great pictures my friend ;)
Thank you.
Two unique animals, plus a perfect shot
Horrible and beautiful.
Nice shoot ma bro @ocrdu, ;)
Great finds! Such an iridescent sheen on the beetle and amazing colours in the caterpillar.
Wow beautiful color!
Two really interesting insects from the looks of it. Such beautiful colours. I really like the worm like one with the blue and red/orange. The "goudhaantje" also looks amazing to be honest. Is already dressed and ready to go to a disco party :)
Well spotted and photographed @ocrdu. Nature is so creative in her adornments. Stunning color combinations.
That Caterpillar has such cool colors :)
