Hello friends in TN,

This is probably Grass-green grasshopper or Hesperotettix speciosus that I captured on this blade of grass. Almost camouflaged with the same color of the grass. Thanks for viewing.

Regards.

Bello questo ritratto di cavalletta, una composizione molto particolare tutta in verde, buona la nitidezza, belli i colori. Grazie e complimenti. Ciao Maurizio

Hello Jusni,
excellent capture,very sharp,nice color and composition,maybe a litle less light,
regards,
Nikos.

Hi Jusni, I like this green, and I like how the grasshopper blends in, being a very similar hue. Even though he is the same colour you have excellent sharp detail on the grasshopper and grass so he stands out well. You had decent light, I think you've controlled it well to allow a decent depth of field.

Thanks, John

Great shot Jusni!Even though colours are so similar, you've brought oput the details very well!
Cheers!

This Grasshopper is really merged with the vegetation, Jusni.
The image is well captured with fine details on the subject.
I wish the face of the insect were turned towards you.
Nevertheless, it is a good composition.

hello Jusni

excellent image with a great clarity, fine POV & DOF,
each animal creature has his own camouflage colour
with his natural habitat or his environnement,
with your image of this insect it shown superbly that thing,

Asbed

Hi Jusni,
Interesting close up.Camouflage is wonderful.Well caught and composed.
Thanks for posting.

Abang,
The subject is real sharp with good details!

overall a good macro presentation!

Hi Jusni,

Well seen and captured, excellent camouflage on this green grasshopper it really blends in well, even with an f.8 you still have a narrow d.o.f, superb detail in the body, good POV, well framed,

Hi Jusni,
Wonderful shot of this huge grasshopper perfectly camouflaged among those green grasses. Very neat and sharp image with clear details. Superb handling of bright lighting and exposure levels. Fine pose captured with a precise DOF and a well chosen POV. Very nicely composed. Kudos.
