Mes enfants auraient été heureux d'avoir à faire à des brosses à dents de ce modèle lorsqu'ils étaient petits. Leur design est tellement cool et les couleurs si attrayantes. #Macro #MacroMondays #Bathroom

Stinging Nettle Slug Caterpillar (Cup Moth, Setora baibarana, Limacodidae) "The Clown"

The undisputed show pony of my local Limacodids…..

These caterpillars are custom built with every conceivable self-protection device imaginable. Bright, garish colors which are like danger signs in nature saying "I taste awful" or "I am loaded with poison; multiple stinging barbs which inflict painful and persistent burning rashes (on humans anyway); false eyes pointing in every direction to say " I see you, you can't surprise me"; a head end that looks the same as the rear end so there can be no potential surprise attack from behind; and specific to the Limacodid caterpillars (who actually have no true legs, hence the slug in their name), a sticky adhesive underside that makes them very difficult to prise off their food plant. With that in mind, stinging nettle caterpillars are often not hard to find. They don't conceal themselves day or night and will often be in the most conspicuous of locations. Basically, they have little to fear.

View my other images of Limacodid Caterpillars from China (Beijing and Yunnan) in my photostream, HERE.

You will notice I have given each individual a descriptive superhero-style name in the title of the image. This variety is aptly nicknamed "The Clown" for its garish theatrical decoration. There is a green version presumably of the same genus that I have dubbed "The Jester". These are for my own reference mainly because practically none of these caterpillars are identified (maybe even ever formally) and this will allow me to group the growing number of images I have into their like-kinds including the various instars I have captured. The names will be included as tags.

These are the varieties that are currently in my photostream:

Dirty Mary (Darna sp.), Virgin Mary, Bloody Mary, Toothbrush, Hole-in-One, Green Devil (Setora sp.), Bullseye, Carrot Top, Torpedo (Susica sp.), Red Devil (Setora sp.), Blue Streak (Susica sp.), Chameleon, Yellow Devil (Setora sp.), Green Marauder, Almond-backed, Submarine, Sand and Sea, The Clown, The Ghost, Chequers, Triple Streak (Parasa sp.), Pin Cushion, Haemorrhoid, Bread Loaf, Jelly Bean (Chalcocelis and Belippa spp.), Tank (Prolimacodes, Demonarosa spp.), Ninja Turtle (Narosa sp.), Doormat (Thosea sp. and Cania sp.), Snickers (Mahanta sp.), Blue Stripe (Parasa sp.), Blueback (Cnidocampa (Monema) sp.), Jagged Little Pill (Darna sp.), Pink Lady, Canary, The Jester, Stool, Yellow Caboose, Zebra Crossing, Ox Tongue, Octopus, Outrigger, Inkblot, Blaze (Thosea sp.), Firecracker (Ceratonema sp.), Icicle, Optimus Prime, Claret, Cherry Ripple, Lavenderman (Parasa sp.), Cogwheel.

This week’s 52 Frame photo focused on negative space with the extra challenge of using a 10-stop ND filter. My subject was the iconic “toothbrush” lighting of Progressive Field. It’s a privilege to see these lights whenever I come to work at my job. This was a 30-second exposure using my 10-stop ND filter for the extra challenge.

I couldn't think of a title for this shot until I read that apparently the most popular coloured toothbrushes are blue...

What colour is yours, if you don't mind me asking? Mine is...blue! :-)

This week’s theme for my Macro Mondays group is “Negative Space.” This is definitely an interesting theme. With macros, I tend to want to fill the entire frame with whatever I’m taking a picture of. I tried a few different things, but settled on this picture of my toothbrush. It was tricky to get the focus right. I ended up having to use manual focus, which I find challenging with the short DOF of macro shots.

HMM!

This week’s 52 Frame photo focused on negative space with the extra challenge of using a 10-stop ND filter. My subject was the iconic “toothbrush” lighting of Progressive Field. It’s a privilege to see these lights whenever I come to work at my job. This was taken on a rare clear day in Cleveland. We average over 200 cloudy days. This photo didn't make the cut.

Used a LED flashlight from above to illuminate the bristles - getting the clear plastic base was a bonus.

The Berbers are the ethnicity indigenous to North Africa west of the Nile Valley . They are distributed from the Atlantic Ocean to the Siwa Oasis in Egypt , and from the Mediterranean Sea to the Niger River . Historically they spoke Berber languages , which together form the "Berber branch" of the Afro-Asiatic language family . Since the Muslim conquest of North Africa in the seventh century , a large portion of Berbers have spoken varieties of Maghrebi Arabic , either by choice or obligation. Foreign languages like French and Spanish , inherited from former European colonial powers , are used by most educated Berbers in Algeria , Morocco , and Tunisia in some formal contexts such as higher education or business.

This scary looking mini beast (35 mm) is a vapourer moth caterpillar. The male moth of these caterpillars comes out during the day to feed, the females are flightless and look like hairy woodlice.

Dit griezelige beestje is de rups van een witvlakvlinder (mot). De mannetjes komen overdag tevoorschijn om te eten, de vrouwtjes kunnen niet vliegen en zien er uit als een harige pissebed.
