I presume these are tent caterpillars, eatin away a mulberry plant. Dont presume they were in one place stagnant,. There were all in motion, and not easy for me

Great detail in all of the "hairs".  The black background really makes it stand out.  I love the title too.

This is a really great shot Balan. I love the bad hair title. Looks like they are running out of mulberry and looking for something, or someone else to chew on. Details, light and BG look great.

I wish you'd quit talking about me like this, Balan....this is a lot like what I see in the mirror every morning.  The hairs really stand out beautifully in this view and the subtle colors as well as the details in their skins add even more interest.  Very well done.

This looks like it had a high degree of difficulty, so my hat's off to ya Balan.
Very fitting title and the dark BG really sets the cats off nicely..
