The Six-spot Burnet (Zygaena filipendulae) is a day-flying moth commonly found across Europe, particularly in meadows, grasslands, and coastal areas. Recognizable by its metallic blue-black wings marked with six vivid red spots on each forewing, it is often mistaken for a butterfly. Its bright coloration is a warning to predators, as the moth contains cyanogenic compounds that make it toxic if eaten. The caterpillars feed mainly on bird’s-foot trefoil, and the adults are frequently seen feeding on nectar from thistles and knapweed during summer.
This striking macro photo captures several cotton harlequin beetles (Tectocoris diophthalmus) adult with a patterned shell resting on a stick.

These macro images reveal the art of ideas through the simplest forms—tiny creatures intricately woven into the fabric of their ecosystems. Each close-up captures moments often overlooked: the delicate wings of a butterfly, the textured shell of a beetle, or the fragile legs of an ant moving with purpose in their natural world. Despite their small size, these subjects embody ecological harmony and perfection, demonstrating how simplicity can reveal profound complexity.
