Recovered Photo Failure - _TNY_4384

When I took this photo of a dusky cockroach (Ectobius lapponicus) in the Mjällådalen nature reserve I unfortunately had the flash power setting set way too high.

 

The resulting photo was *very* blown out and most of it was just completely white. Well, sometimes Adobe Camera RAW is able to perform miracles and the exposure on this roach was dialled back to a point were I think it is a good photo of this species. The background however, is a different story and the completely green leaf it was sitting on came out in this weird tan hue.

 

So disregard the background and let's focus on the insect and those very cool eyes.
