[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Spanish]
A species of grasshopper of about 3 cm in length, that passes unnoticed between the dry grass of this season (winter)of the year. Only I noticed myself of its presence when flew and settled in this dry leaf. I tried to find information on this species, but I did not find anything distinctive, are many species in my country and few data in Internet and books.

Hola Hernan... otro ejemplo de mimetismo como bien titulaste esta imagen

Agradable composición con colores bien marcados, donde la langosta se confunde con los arbustos secos del suelo.
Buen POV y DOF que brinda una adecuada nitidez.
La iluminación es ligeramente elevada, por lo que algunos detalles del insecto no alcanzan a apreciarse, tal vez con un retoque de brillo y contraste con una máscara sobre el insecto podría remarcarlos.

Hace un tiempo publiqué una imagen de esta especie con la misma incógnita sobre la especie de que se trata.
Puedes verla AQUI para analizar sus similitudes.

Saludos... Ricardo

Hi Hernan,
Nice sharp detail in this macro shot. He blends into the dried grass perfectly with his colors. This looks excellent!
