Hello Art,
What a fine camouflage-coloured Grasshopper very nicely captured here. Good focus and excellent details that stand out clearly from the stones in the background. Well composed too.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hi Art,

You have made this guy stand out from the background very well with very sharp focus and detail. Well Done

Hello Art,
nice that you discovered this interestingly coloured grasshopper which
is probably hard to recognize in this stony habitat. Due to camouflage and the irritating
pattern you can hardly see that you present the specimen with high sharpness.
Well done and thanks for posting!
Best wishes, Peter

hello art,

Thank you Art, This is a superb side view. Excellent shot. I just wonder how you managed to spot this fella. Look at the wing color and the rock. They look alike. Superb shot. Ganesh
