I didn’t see the insect on the underside of the frond as I lined up the unopened purple bloom with an opened yellow one behind it.

Love this photo, how pretty and unusual! Couldn’t help thinking it’s like a natural abstract of the Virgin Mary with halo, like you see in old paintings!
Thanks, Liz, glad that you liked it! Oh, I see that now 😀
One of my fellow photographers likes to call these “bonus bugs.” It is amazing how often we find little critters when reviewing our photos that we never saw when we were taking them.
Good description, Mike! So true, and an amazing variety, too.
Lovely!
Thank you!
