it's a potato bug...or what some like to call a roly poly?

Yeah, or a pill bug. Cool shot... how'd you do it?

It's very cool shot. It looks like a floating bug or fossil - and curious as well how you did the shot

Thanks, it is indeed a pill bug, roly poly or wood louse, but not I believe a potato bug.
It was on a piece of glass over some coloured matter, on it's back trying to right itself. I flipped the image and really liked the way it looks like it's swimming.

Excellent... it does look like some swimming monster. Good job

This is such a cool shot! Well done author!

Potato bugs are also known as Jerusalem Crickets...just found that out, thought I'd pass it on.

I worry not what it is I am to occupied thinking amazing it is :-}

We call them slater bugs - no idea why!
