Damson 🌱<p>I drew the seven stages of the Common Green Shieldbug (Palomena prasina) life cycle! I think shieldbugs are super cute, it always makes me happy when I see them in the garden :blobaww:</p><p><a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insects</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/shieldbugs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shieldbugs</span></a></p>
Matt<p>Focus stacking is damn finnicky. This is a stack of 40 images out of my R6, and it mostly worked out ok, except I managed to miss one focal plane slice on the top bug, meaning it's a tiny bit blurry, and it is killing me to look at.</p><p>These hawthorn shieldbugs are absolutely *everywhere* on my cotoneaster.
