I shot this earlier today. Does anyone know what this insect is?

Good capture- either an insect sucking assassin bug or a plant sap sucking capsid/mirid bug I think.

Thank you Brian! It was such a cool looking bug, but I had no idea what is was. I'm just starting to focus on macro photography and am really enjoying finding all these little critters.
