Caterpillar of a Gulf Fritillary Butterfly

I spotted this in my garden the other day, and ran for my camera (not that he was going to go anywhere real quick like)! I shot it with my Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 100 mm L macro lens, and KX-800 twin flash at f16, 1/60, ISO 160, handheld.

Thank you, Emile, Joanie and Amalia. I do appreciate your views and kind comments. I have been out of town caregiving for a longtime friend (like family) and so missed some of the comments made. <>< #11769209Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
