LordV Macro Photo-Lord of the Year 2006  More info | Oct 16, 2010 01:59 | #1 Spotted a shieldbug sitting on a pear leaf in the garden. Managed to cut the leaf off and put it on a sunchair for easier shooting without disturbing the shield bug at all. Did some focus stack sequences and then it lowered it's proboscis and started blowing bubbles for me. Not seen a shieldbug do this before.       http://www.flickr.com/photos/lordv/

canonloader Cream of the Crop  More info | Oct 16, 2010 05:20 | #7 The first thing that awed me when I opened this page was the colors. Then your usual sharp detail. Very nice. I see a drop under his belly. Was he excreting from there, or just storing it? Also more bubbles on the leaf under him. And, a white smear under his face, on the leaf. These shots all ask more than they answer. Mitch- ____...^.^...____
