That afternoon, I wandered around the bushes that grew wild on the edge of the football field. My eyes fell on a small black insect with a unique and slightly scary shape. Its pitch black color stands out among the green and brown of the wild grass. This insect has a strong body shape, long antennae with contrasting orange tips, and strong legs. My curiosity was immediately piqued, and I felt this insect was the perfect subject for this afternoon's macro photography.
I slowly approached it, careful not to disturb it, then took several photos from different angles. When I saw the results on the camera screen, I was completely blown away by the details. Its unique body shape, with strong-looking antennae and legs, gives a mysterious impression, like a creature from another world.
After returning home, I found out more about this insect. Apparently, this insect is known by the Latin name Anoplocnemis phasianus. This species is often considered to have a "scary" appearance due to its sturdy body shape and dark coloring, but it is actually an important part of the surrounding ecosystem.
