Description

A grasshopper is not my favourite insect but he was a fascinating subject to photograph. You have to catch this guy between hops.

Canon EF 24-70mm @70mm f/10 1/125 sec ISO 400

Not my favorite either, but it beats the heck out of the ones with 8 legs! Really neat close-up, Heather! #10263363

He might not be your favorite insect Heather but you did one hell of a job capturing him. #10264182

I've never seen a hopper in these colors, Heather. Around my yard they are green or grey. The combination of his color and the red is striking, and the clarity and details are excellent. #10271242
