Pyrops oculata lanternflies/lantern bugs and Draco formosus (?) gliding lizard on the same tree.

Too close, i know..but i just wanted to see how close it would let me get to.

Need to really scan the trees to spot them.

Too close? You can never be too close!

Also, the stereo pair doesn't pop in 3D for me

Joking aside, I like the detail the first one. The contrast of the "netting" of the wings is really nice.
