Katydid nymph - I think

I'm pretty sure this is a katydid nymph, but I haven't been able to identify it on the usual sites. Like the spider, this was tiny with the body length being less than 10mm.

Taken with D300 and 60mm f/2.8D with SB-800 and soft box. Exif has more data. Both images uncropped with minimal PP.

It's very nice lighting and detail. Are you using one of those Lumiquest softboxes ?
