A group shot of a longhorn beetle, a juvenile katydid, and some other bugs:

Canon 10D, 300/4 + 1.4TC, F16, fill flash

I wasn't that fortunate with the light (the shadows don't add to this) but the bugs are cool. The katydid lets me sneak this in for the motif. Does anyone know the species name of the longhorn beetle?

Cool shot Tom: Lots of Bugs and Color and I like the placement in the frame. No Idea on the ID though.

Wonderful shot. I don't know the ID of the long-horn.
Thanks for posting,
