Hi Ivan
IMO, the diference between the settings that you used and the ones you said you should have used is very little. I think all of us thing they should have modified something to the setting of their camera after seeing the picture on the PC :)
The result is very nice this way, too...honestly!
The details are razor sharp, the colors are very beautiful and the lighting excellent. This apperture gave you a very lovely blurry BG and i say that's great - even id with the other one it would have probably been similar.
Anyway, a very well framed and composed, picture!

Bravo and TFS

bonjour ivan
bonne lumiere et couleurs naturelles pour ce criquet,bon POV et DOF.
le BG est bien flou et l'insecte s'en detache bien.

...Jag har varit i Åhus området i lördags. Jag hade tur med vädret :) Fina ställen som du hade rekommenderat (tack). Jag har fått några fina bilder på 4 nya sorts fåglar som jag inte hade :)
I'll be back

Una macro nítida, colorida y con buena iluminación, con adecuado DOF que genera un fondo bien difuso.
El encuadre es algo centrado y vertical, personalmente hubiese intentado una ligera rotación para romper ese simetría... pero sólo es un punto de vista.
Una presentación muy agradable.
Agregué esta imagen a mi Tema de Langostas.
Gracias y saludos... Ricardo

A very pleasant presentation.
I added this image to my Theme of Grasshopper.
Thank you and greetings... Ricardo

Hello Ivan,
this is a very nice species, but you also managed to get this one very well on the picture. The Marsh Grasshopper expands now a lot in my region, and therefor the change for me to get a picture of one increases. But as I see this nice and sharp image I have to put a lot of effort in to get it better than you did, if I ever get the chance....:-)
Regards, Jacob

Hello Ivan,
really beautiful, brilliant and sharp picture of the grasshopper with nice natural colours.
... I decided, it is a superb picture (despite f8).
In some cases - if possible - I take 20 to 30 pictures of the same object using different parameter settings. But I think, this was not possible here - many animals do not allow it!
Best wishes, Peter

Hi Ivan,
The light is a bit harsh, but it certainly brought out the amazing details and beautiful colors on this grasshopper. Excellent POV. You even have eye contact.
TFS. : )

Hi Ivan,
a wonderful picture with nice colours and very good details.
The shallow DOD is also very good, the entire hopper within focus and the BG nicely blurred.
Very well done.
