It is; it's an Assassin Bug. In my garden. Much drama in the garden when you look closely ;-)

PP - cropped, tonemapped bug (pregamma 0.697, mantiuk method, contrast mapping 0.1, saturation factor 1.029, detail factor 1) and merged in luminousity mode, duotone, reduced gamma, increased contrast, dodged/burnt a little, resized, sharpened, hand-sharpened a few buggy bits, removed some noise, added border.
