The thorn amongst the flora

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Horned treehopper

An interesting subject that had landed onto the beautiful bloom of the winter terrain, the tiny treehopper, smaller than the usual ones seen on the trail, conveniently had selected the petal of a light purple bloom and kept moving along the petal. Eventually after a moment of traversing the petal, the treehopper hopped off it and disappeared onto the dry foliage of the trail.

It stands out nicely on the white petal. If possible slight less space on the left would have strengthened the composition further. Good details. Thanks for sharing.
