up close and personal

I found this one taking a rest on my strawberry plant a while back. I love all the details on him/her.

That is certainly up close. I'm hoping to go pick strawberries this weekend. Hope not to find bugs like this on on my berries. Beautiful shot!

My, what a great shot especially those googly eyes. I'm glad you have him/her on full zoom so we can see all the details, although I'd be saying OK you win the strawberry is all yours!
