Is it this, Hairy Shield Bug?

Straight ooc, but shows body plan.

Note black & white spots on sides, as in the exuvia texture?

The legs / feet look similar...


Hope this helps,

If you're using flash Derek, which I'm presuming you would be, would the flash duration not be short enough to negate any camera shake, within reason?
I've found that any blur caused by shake is more likely to be "fore & aft", rendering the image out of focus, rather than "shaken".

Thank you all, very much.
That mid-tone softness comes from all the leaves & stalk being covered with very fine hairs, LB.

Google Karl Blossfeldt Art.co.uk, & be prepared to be inspired!

Thanks for your comments & taking the time to look!

Ta-Daaa!

Thanks, John, quite right.

I had several copies on the go in Elements but decided on using this one, which was the original,straight ooc.
It was viewed in Elements, but not subject to a "Save" operation. So, although Elements revolved it for viewing, no changes were made, so it remained as-was!



I think!


Thanks for your time, it won't happen again!

Roger.
