A hopper

[QuietOne]

It let me take all the pictures I wanted as long as I didn't get too close or move too fast. Not sure why, they usually jump before you even see them.

I like both of them nice closeups QuietOne!

[QuietOne]

Thanks, Michael, casil and Yisehaq. I was fascinated with the textures of it, especially on the hind legs. And pleased that I was able to capture some of the texture.

really nice close-ups! I favour shot 1 here but both are cool.

[QuietOne]

Thanks, Marko.

I like #1 because of the head on perspective

[QuietOne]

Thank you, Rinkdaddy. I wasn't sure I'd get the detail from the front at the time I took it. Looks like I managed to get the detail down to the pits the antennae stick out of.
