HI Sky,
ich hab' diese Winzlinge auch im Garten, hab' aber auch keine Ahnung wie sie heißen.
Eigentlich mag ich ja keine Käfer, aber von der Nähe betrachtet sehen sie eigentlich ganz süß aus - jedenfalls hast Du ihn gestochen scharf abgelichtet, vielen Dank und Gruß

Hallo Sky,
pictures of this kind always belong to my favourites showing clear features of small creatures such as this bug nymph. I am not familar with Canadian bugs and I have no idea on the species identity. Because it is not in the adult state it will be difficult to identify.
Best wishes,
Peter

The details are nice, clear and sharp.
Good colours, lighting and exposure. DOF is spot on and the POV is good.
Well composed and good framing. I wish I could help with ID, but I have no idea.
Thanks for posting, have a great week.

Fantastic close up macro of this really interesting bug. The lighting is very nice. A little bit more DOF and this would be a prize photo. :)

Hi Sky,
Sorry I can't help with the ID, but the shot is excellent.
Great colors and sharp detail. The fill flash created a nice dark backround, Looks greta!

Hello Sky,
Pleasant composition!
The little guy is captured with fine details as he is fighting his way along that straw...
Pleasant colours, background to enhance the subject!

What a nice close-up that you have well done ! The insect is nice and I like the contrast on dark background. Perhaps more DOF for the legs... Sorry I don't know ID. Congratulations Sky and thanks for sharing.

Wonderful capture, Sky. Fantastic details on her, and the dark bgf really helps her stand out. I like the DoF, too, just enough clarity to see the hair on the stem, but blurry enough so they are clearly not the subject.

Hello Sky,
Looks VERY small, whatever it is. Perhaps a newly hatched stink bug? Very nice against the black BG and the compostion is excellent.
Sharp detail, nice color and light.
Nicely done and TFS!

Hallo Sky,
ausgezeichnetes, messerscharfes Makro dieser winzigen Wanzenlarve, die niedlich den Halm erklettert.
Und auch sehr schön komponiert!
Mit Dank und besten Grüßen,
Peter

Hello Sky,
Excellent and sharp focus on the main subject, with a blurred and appropiate dark BG, all these things made a very good photo.Only a bit too blurred branch, but´s only a minor detail.
Best regards

Una macro nitida y documental me parece probable se trate de un estadio en desarrollo (ninfa) de un Hymenoptero (chinches-bugs)por el escutelo (dorsal) que se prolonga hacia el abdomen,impresiona que esta succionando savia del tallo tal vez con su trompa?,los anillos abdominales no parecen cubiertos por alas o elitros.Es la opinion de un aficionado solamente.
