Buggy
Not sure what this is but the colors are great.

I don't know what it is either but I like how it looks here. The colors, the point of focus at the eyes, and the contrast with the poppy look good.

Nice catch, Wade. I've seen 'em but don't know what they are, either. The poppy sure makes the bug look good.

Looks like a type of long horned beetle. Nice image!

Canon 1ds mkii canon 70-200 F2.8 at f4.5 140mm 1/4000th of a second Iso 640.
This is a fairly heavy crop but I think it held up well.
