    Re: Face of grasshoppers

    Again, very nice captures.

    I definitely think that you need more depth of field here. The entire head should be in focus on each.

    The 2nd shot is the best. He seems to be saying "What, no beer?!?"

    Looks like you're having fun with your macro lens.

    Yeah, two is the one that grabs you, just a shame the antene aren't quite in the focal plane.

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    Re: Face of grasshoppers

    The first 3 are excellent captures. The second one I think is the most interesting, with some really pleasant bokeh, and really great separation. The last one has a very interesting subject, but the angle of the light source really washes out the texture detail and, I think, really hurts the shot.
