Thanks. I didn't know what I had gotten until I looked it up myself.

Beautiful shot of yet another species I have yet to see in person. Nice catch light and good detail.

I thought of that, but didn't bother to take the time. If I make a print of this sometime, I certainly will take your advice.

Thanks to all for the comments.

You should definately clone out that twig if you ever print this. The shot is so beautifully simple and clean that it detracts alot. Apart from that this is a perfect shot!
