Receive a warm greeting, friends of BoC. Today I bring you an exciting and dangerous macro photography session in the studio with a very beautiful and interesting caterpillar.
It is the caterpillar of the Automeris io moth, a name that I discovered thanks to Google Lens that identified one of the photos. This caterpillar is a vibrant green color with longitudinal white and mahogany stripes, and along its body it is covered with huge tufts of hair and spines, which gives it a unique and striking appearance that can be confused with a branch of vegetation.
The caterpillar of the Automeris io moth is part of the Saturniidae family. Its name refers to Greek mythology, to Io, one of the lovers of the god Zeus. (Source Wikipedia)
In the photos you can see the texture of the caterpillar's skin, as well as its color patterns and distribution of the tufts. These characteristics are an adaptation of defense against predators. It is worth clarifying that at the end of the session I returned it to its natural environment.
I used the A7S camera of the UMIDIGI cell phone in macro mode, the editing with lightroom was applied to crop, highlight the color as well as the sharpness.
This caterpillar gives us the delicacy and complexity of each creature. Its details reveal the perfection of nature and awaken a feeling of wonder and admiration.
I'll wait for you in the next publication.
