OMG!! These things give me the creeps!! We call them Katydids, don't know their real names, but we had one in our house and it stared at me and then jumped right into the middle of my head!! I nearly beat myself to death and was screaming and running around the house. My kids and husband had hysterics!!
I think "this" one is staring at me too!!! Awesome details and love the lighting and your camellia!!! FAV!
