Head on shot of a blue bottle fly on a marigold flower. Although I have earlier clicked similar shots, none of them had the water drops like this. Also, the colour contrast really makes the image pop. The green bokeh almost looks like aurora borealis.
A Bumblebee Feeding at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden in July, 2019, taken by my late wife Joni. Enjoy!
A mottled emigrant butterfly on the Jamaican spike flowers. The texture on it's wings is remarkable, and the direction of light here enhances it just right.
A silver streak blue butterfly on a leaf. It was quite cooperating for a photoshoot, and I could only notice the reason after looking at the photos afterwards.

Happy new year everyone.
As a cicada discards it's old limiting shell to emerge and grow, so may we all find the opportunity and courage to discard our limitations and emerge in the new year to grow in the direction we aspire.
May our new year's beginning be as bright and colourful as this one.
The moulted shell of a grasshopper. It's amazing to see how completely they discard the old skin as a part of their growth. It's absolutely undamaged and one can possibly mistake it for a live insect at first glance.
Also known as the spreadwing as it belongs to a group of damsels which mostly perch with their wings open like a true dragonfly, rather than held closed along the length of the abdomen like most other damsels.
Their metallic green casings make them unlikely to be confused with any other species (in our region at least), the only other metallic green damsel being the female Banded Demoiselle, but colour is the only thing they have in common, the demoiselles are obviously bigger, longer legged, are green in their entirety and the wings are very large in comparison and tinted green, plus they are usually only found on rivers, emeralds very rarely are.
The last of the damsels to emerge, they aren't usually seen until July, and will be the only damsel remaining in late season, lasting through September.

Got to capture my first baby jumping spider! He was like all other baby's didn't like to sit still for to long. LOL The little fella was on the tiniest Dandelion seed.
Los sírfidos son una familia de dípteros braquíceros cuyos adultos liban el néctar de las flores adoptando el aspecto de himenópteros como las abejas y las avispas.
Yellow sulfur butterfly on hibiscus flower
Upon the hibiscus, bright and bold,
A visitor of wings unfolds,
Yellow sulfur butterfly, so fair,
In dance with petals, without a care.
Amidst the blooms, a fleeting stay,
A moment's beauty, before it's away,
But in that instant, joy is found,
In nature's splendor, all around.
So let us cherish this tender sight,
As butterfly and flower unite,
A dance of life, a wondrous show,
In garden's embrace, they softly glow.
