At first I wanted to brush him off, but I thought again and got my camera:

Canon 7d with 100mm macro
ISO 125, f/11, 1/60s
Remote release/mirror lockup

Marylynne, Nice bug. I love the soft colors of the berries, and the pose the bug gave you. Well done!!.

Nice focus on the insect and an interesting shot. Maybe a little more room at the top?

Thanks, Erik and Wade. I was thinking about more space above the antenna, but couldn't decide...

This little guy definitely adds to the scene and I'm glad you didn't brush him off! I agree with Erik that a little more space at the top would make this one even stronger. It would be great to see another one of these shots when the blueberries have ripened.

Thanks, Scott. I've adding a tish more space at the top. As for ripening...they don't stay on the bush long, but I'll try ;-)
