Hyaline Grass Bug in Melbourne for Saturday Critter

 


📸 Macro Marvel: Liorhyssus Hyalinus in Melbourne! 🦟

Captured this stunning macro shot of the Liorhyssus hyalinus, also known as the Hyaline Grass Bug, on the wall in Melbourne. The intricate details of its body and the vibrant colors are truly mesmerizing. 

Liorhyssus hyalinus is a fascinating plant bug, often found on various grasses and plants. Its transparent wings and distinctive markings make it a favorite subject for macro photographers.

Linking Saturday Critter

Having completed the final season of Cobra Kai in one uninterrupted viewing session, I observed that the young characters' movements are rather slow, and the fight sequences appear somewhat amateurish. Nevertheless, the show possesses an undeniably captivating quality that renders it irresistibly addictive.

  2. Great macro again. I see you are using an old pentax. Out curiosity I bought a K-3 2 month ago and am stunned by the results you can get with that already 10 year old dslr. That makes photography very satisfying indeed.

    1. I used to be a Pentax fan boy. I was running videos and campaigns for Pentax against other big boys in the camera industry. But old gear became vintage for me these days

    1. It is supposed to be ubiquitous. Just quite small to notice

  8. It's beautiful, especially since it's on your wall, Roentare, and not mine. And look at the topographic relief on the wall! 😂 I'm battling cockroaches here in Hawaii, which I don't have to fight at home in Colorado. Happy weekend!

  9. Beautiful capture of the insect. It takes a macro shot to see how beautiful these little ones are.
    Gosh, binge watched - was it 15 episodes?
