I’m one of those people who observes everything. It’s a trait that comes in handy for an artist who also happens to love photographing the minute things I find at my feet. I came across this brilliantly colored caterpillar on a walk to the mailbox. His fiery hue stood out against the green leaves, begging me to take his portrait. I was happy to oblige.
You can find Amanda’a art on Facebook and on her website. Her Flickr account also shows off her great photo skills.

Looks like living candy, though it might be advisable not to eat it.
I second that recommendation!
Loving this…our caterpillars are more boring here, I need to go hunting for more exotic ones!
Thank you, Lisa! And good luck on your hunt! 😀

We’re so happy to have you here with us, Amanda!! I l ❤ this photo – the bright color and intriguing subject jump off the screen!
Thank you! This little guy was so small that I didn’t even see all the details of his coloring till I looked at the photograph on my computer. Nature is amazing.
