By the way, are those bugs rather stinky?


Thanks for the comment David. To answer your question; I don't know what they smell like, I didn't get that intimate with them. I do know that they are voracious eaters. They really did a job on my broccoli!

Cool! What are those?

one of my favorites this challenge -- like the multiple blooms (perhaps a bit too many bugs to be believable?) bold black and red color pallet

This is one of the best macros I have EVER seen. I'm predicting a ribbon. Good work!

This is so well done that I don't care if it was staged or not. Great combination of colors, textures, and composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Wow they look like flat, ugly ladybugs. The composition seems a little awkward but I have no suggestions on how it could be improved. The red and black contrast nicely.

I've been sitting here getting irritated at all the bug shots, but this one stopped me in my tracks. Great use of the double color exposure (black & red). This just took over as one of my favorites. 10
