In this case, a little DiCaprio impersonator. You know, the king of the world...

Orange and green look nice together. Excellent capture and pose.
Thanks for sharing,
barondlaThank you for your comment, the orange of the marigold and the green certainly go together very well…

Mariquita, ladybug, marienkäfer, coccinella, coccinelle, ¡lieveheersbeestje!…
Superb ladybug capture. Can even see it eating. Your camera has a great close-up setting to achieve this much magnification.
Thanks for sharing,

I've enjoyed all the shots in this series. Photos increase my awareness.
¡Hola Mike!, I'm glad you liked the images. I'll be uploading more here, and if anyone wants to, they can use this same thread to upload their macros...
Hello again, I'm glad you like that little mariquita. The truth is, despite its limitations, my little camera allows me to have a great time chasing bugs and discovering all those little details around us. And part of the fun is doing a Google image search afterwards to identify what you find. And you always learn something. For example, the daisy is not a single flower, but an inflorescence:
A discreet refuge...
A day when I don't learn something is a day wasted.
I didn't know daisies were an inflorescence. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing, looks like that bee has been busy...
A small hoverfly (Episyrphus balteatus): all my life running away from them thinking they were wasps 😄
This little one, or rather, the annoying wind that was blowing yesterday, didn't make it easy for me...Little predator…
Cereal leaf beetle (Oulema melanopus).
Adults, on average, are about 5 mm long…
Mine is hairier.😀
Nice capture, you did a good job despite that tricky light.
And speaking of hair, there's a saying around here that says that where there's hair, there's joy 😁¡Hola!
I found this little guy in the middle of the undergrowth, as you can see, scanning the horizon perched on a blade of grass. These photos are usually a disaster, because the background is so close and intrusive. So I took a chance and opened the aperture to its maximum, hoping to at least get his little eye in focus...Green camo.

A little fakir! 😄 thanks for sharing.
It's very interesting how some of these little guys camouflage themselves in their surroundings. Usually, if they're not moving, you don't even see them.
Another example: in this case, this little grasshopper lives among rocks and dry brush...Oh, and I repeat, I'd be happy if you'd like to share your bugs (or your macros) here...
