I do not know the name of this insect, yet I am taken by the way its red and green are set in vivid contrast within the frame, as though nature herself had paused to compose a small, living harmony of colour—spotted in the Melbourne Botanic Garden, a place usually rather unremarkable, but here briefly redeemed by this quiet flourish of colour.

...Google Lens says it might be Oedemera nobilis.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I got nothing from Google before
DeleteThe colors against the pink are fantastic! A wonderful image!
ReplyDeleteIt takes a long time to get some decent shots
DeleteMuy buen macro de ese pequeño insecto que se posa sobre esa hoja de color perfecto para que él tome el protagonismo pero, dejando que el entorno brille por su lado.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo
Photographing insects is a tough job
DeleteSi que contrasta el color de las hojas con el insecto, lo que le hace muy visible a sus posibles depredadores.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
It's a lovely bug and love the photo :-D
ReplyDeleteBugs really open a different world to explore
DeleteI don't know what it is either but it' a great photo. The iridescence of the wings are amazing. Stop by my blog on Sunday. I have a new art link up. I hope you will be interested. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteYes sure! I will pop by and have a look
DeleteIt really looks like a professional bug identification photo. The colors are lovely. After researching, I cannot find the name either.
ReplyDeleteThere are too many insects unknown to us
DeletePreciosa macro. Cuando se amplia la imagen se ven perfectamente la bella gama de colores que contrastan con el rosa del fondo.
ReplyDeleteMore of an aesthetic value
DeleteThe color stripes on this insect contrast perfectly with the bright pink flower it is sitting on.
ReplyDeleteGood for photography aspect
DeleteIt posed prettily for you.
ReplyDeleteIt did not stay for long
DeleteImagino que hi ha colors que els atrauen més que altres.
ReplyDeleteT'ha quedat molt bonica.
Salutacions!
Yes, a good contrast

ReplyDeleteI haven't a clue what it is either but one thing I know ... it is a great photograph.
