I found this Grasshopper in the same area as my previous post. I really enjoyed photographing these insects. I guess it's time to get a macro lens.

1/800, f8, Exposure comp -.33
ISO 200
Cropped to 8 mp before resizing for web

All comments and critique very appreciated.

A fine look at this grasshopper, Matt. You've got excellent details and colors. The multiple grass stems make it clear where this critter hangs out and your crop has positioned the hopper very nicely.

Fine detail and the diagonal reeds and soft ones in th BG are perfect.
Very well-done!
