Please take a close look at this chrysanthemum lace bug. With the unaided eye, it looks like a speck of something that sluffed off a plant, sitting on the leaf. If you take a 5x magnification lens and finally manage to get a sharp picture of it (or at least acceptably so), it’s amazing what you see. Notice the intricate, beautiful details in this almost microscopic insect. Why?

I leave that to you.
