around 5mm long so a full set of extension tubes for this guy. i barely noticed him but just caught him outta the corner of my eye. strong red colours on his back but lime greens from the front. had heaps of smudges over my lens today so i spent a fair amount of time cloning spots out, it was raining pretty hard. i hope the sigma's weatherproof ! lol this was just before my lens "misshap".

#2 is a great shot Rooz.
I get these guys occasionally as well. I think they are babies, but they still eat my plants :(

I have never seen one of these. That second shot is great, and they feel kind of sci-fi.

Lovely shot of a young katydid :) I love the full on contact in the first shot, but the colours in the second are great :)
