 Look what I found in my garden, while out taking macros shots, for the 30 Day "Macro" photos.
I decided that he could be my new adopted "Pet of the Day" for Day 22.
I think he is destined to be a great acrobat one day, so called him "Tiny Acrobat". While he was with me for the day, I named him Rusty.....

He wasn't even as big as a match stick, about the same thickness, and only about half the length.....quite tiny really, but so orange on the top part, turning to black at the bottom half.....

Super cool macro with great shallow DOF. The illuminated hairs really make this shot. Aren't caterpillars great pets?!

Wow great find and as all great photographers do way to take advantage of the situation and get the capture. Nice colors.

What an odd-looking little critter. Very colorful; he must find it hard to hide.
