Hi Laurens,
a strange fellow indeed. Interesting shot you did, focussed on eye and antennae. But something is missing, I don't know what. The light seems to be the evening sun, so maybe color contrasts disappeared. Anyway, thanks for presenting an animal that we don't see often.
Best regards
Dietrich

Hallo Lou.

Mooie foto van een apart beestje. Ik heb een paar jaar geleden ook een foto kunnen maken van iets wat hier op lijkt maar die zat in het gras verscholen. Bij jouw foto kun je alle kenmerken goed zien.

Hallo Lou,
De dieren op Lefkada hebben weinig rust gehad toen jij er was. Je hebt er weinig gemist. Hier weer zo'n bijzondere. Ik vind het exemplaar in je WS wel beter op de foto staan. Ik mis hier wat contrast en scherptediepte. Maar best de moeite waard.
Groet,
Peter

That is amazing! A beautiful grasshopper. Very nice details and POV. Composition is excellent with a nicely blurred background. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Preciosos colores y buena luz Laurens. Una especie difícil de ver habitualmente que tu has inmortalizado de manera estupenda. Quizá, y a mi gusto, falte algo de espacio en la parte derecha.
Un abrazo: Josep Ignasi.

Hola Laurens.
Interesante el insecto que hoy nos presentas aqui. La pose sobre el pequeña ramita permite observar finos y delicados detalles.
Saludos

Hello Lou,
Interesting pictures (also in WS) of Acrida ungarica with its amazing flat shape and its very special head. With its fine colors it is perfectely protected against predators. Fine colors and composition.
Thanks and kind regards

Hello Lou,
Though the DOF is limited it is a nice capture of this Grasshopper nymph, the lateral POV showing most of the features with fine clarity.
Nice to see the adult in the WS!
Thanks and have a nice weekend,
Ivan
