Been a while since I found a shot interesting enough to post. Found this one one morning when watering flowers and it was still there in the evening. Everything I have been doing has been too hot and dirty to take the camera along.
E5 70-300mm @600mm eq f10 fill flash 1/60 ISO 200 HH

Awesome clors and good pose. I do wish it's eyes were sharper though.

Kendall - Interesting pose, looks like he's attached to three different leaves. I think a little more DOF would help with this one. I like the droplets.
