Charles: The thumbnail doesn't do justice to this image. I am pleasantly surprised to see this stinky bug and fine details in the flower. Good DOF and excellent comp.

That's quite clever; first, my eye were attracted to the bug and its colours, and only then did I notice the slug oozing into focus. Great details and colours, I'd love to see a bigger version. Well done!

Here's a somewhat larger vesion, Katja. This was such a lucky catch that it's a favorite of mine even though I wish it were a bit sharper. I took it last June.
