Hello Ray,
What an unusual looking caterpillar you have presented to us. The tiny Saddleback is in a league all it's own due to it's unique features and stinging ability. I have heard it's sting is similar to that of a bee.
I love the contrasting colors and all those many hollow spines which seem to protrude from all over it's body. The only little nit I see is focus seems to be just the tiniest bit soft, although still a wonderful shot.
