You are in definite danger of becoming "That Grasshopper Lady". But you are already crowned The Queen of Macro. Love this shot. The detail of the texture of its coving and antennae and the detritus of the leaf bite mark. May I ask you a few technical questions. Is this the full capture or a crop?(I'll guess crop.) Did you use a tripod?(I'll guess yes.) And a flash? (If yes, what make and model? I'm looking into them) Thanks, in advance, if you can take time to answer me. Lovely work.

@sarahlth thank you Sarah, these grasshoppers seem to really love the mandarin tree but I haven't spotted them on any other plants.

@susie1205 thanks Susie :)

@mbrutus thank you, you are way too kind with your praise. I have posted the original photo to my other folder for you to look at, along with all the answers to your questions. If you want to know anything else feel free to ask :)

@flygirl thanks Dee, they are rather funny, they'll stay for a couple of shots then hide around the other side of the leaf :)
