I often see this insect sleeping, resting with the same gesture that you are seeing right now on top of leaves. I often see them in botanic garden or Hortpark. Before, I wasn't able to have a chance for a descent shot and I just often ignore this insect and find another one. This fella is so small that tiny vibrations or slight breeze can make the image either soft or blur. Just got lucky that the weather was perfect and was able to take this shot.. finally.
