A blue tiger colony of caterpillars had occupied a Calotropis plant. Post early morning rain/dew they were eating away into the leaves.

I like how the cat and the leaf edge angle across the frame, Balan. The dew drops look great as well.

Hi Balan,
I agree with Mark about your composition. The diagonals work very well here. I wish the BG was lighter in color so that the caterpillar's dorsal edge stands out from the BG. Overall, the subject and leaf are fairly sharp and you were able to get a a pretty good image at or near life size...................................Jim
