📷 ColorChallenge: Monday Red - Milkweed Assassin Bug
Spiky Red Armor
紅色盔甲
Hello friends! Today I share with you guys a photo of a red insect that I spotted crawling around on a public park bench. It didn't move around much so I could get a sharp photo with my 100mm macro lens. I tried looking online to see what species this is but alas I cannot find it, but perhaps you can? 1 SBD award to the first person to identify this insect :)
嗨大家好！今天來分享一張在一個公園長椅上拍到的紅色昆蟲。還好它動的不快，以便我用100mm微距鏡捕捉到銳利的畫面。我在網絡上找不到此昆蟲的物種，有昆蟲專家可以幫我找出嗎？第一位找出此昆蟲名字的有1 SBD獎金哦！
Edit: @taraamin77 has identified the insect as milkweek assassin bug!

Hey I have some insects like this on my passion fruits plant, I think it is a family of that insect for the antennas that are very similar, http://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-passion-fruit-flag-wing-bug-costa-rica-41782677.html

PS: I am a photography newbi.. and first time know that the canon lens can be used on Sony .... :P
Thanks @justyy! In most cases, lenses from different manufacturers can be used on non-native camera bodies, but there are exceptions, and all will require the use of an additional adapter. In my case I used a Canon EF to Sony E-mount adapter :)
Great capture! It does seem to be modeling for you!
Hehe usually I scare them away, thank you!
