A brilliant insect shot from an unknown photographer. No idea of the species.

Why unknown? They are from Eko Adiyanto from Indonesia. He is posting macro pics like this all the time. So why unknown photographer?

He is posting there regularly. As most Indonesian photographers he will probably employ some tricks. While nature photographers try to capture natural scenes, Indonesian photographers very often try to produce something they want to see. Like freezing specimen and putting them together on a pic. Other than that he is great.

Probably, I would not know why a bee would be hanging like this. There is solitary bees that sleep by holding a twig between their mandibles, but I don't know why these would do this pose and stay on this twig like that. It's unlikely he came across it in a natural setting.
