An excellent photo, the depth of field is just as it needs to be, and entertaining content/caption!

Very good shot. Subject nice in focus and great dof.
I like the way the grashopper's back is arched, really stunning.
Great Photo, congrats

Beautifully captured !

Mooi Leon,
Van kleur, detail en uitsnede. Vooral die rode rand maakt het af. De titel is natuurlijk ook heel sterk.
Groet,
Paul

The green insect on the green leave makes for an interesting composition with very few colours. The red border on the leave really makes the difference to the picture. Great sharpness and nice choice of DOF. Excellent!

Great close-up, Leon! A good example of natural mimetism. Excellent quality! Congrats!

Raining here today too Leon not that we don't need it. Excellent choice of title which fits so well the cricket peering over the edge of the leaf. Great colours, good perspective and all so sharp. TFS

PS Many thanks for your comment on Wintry Reflections

Hi Leon,
well it is all grey and rainy here in Slovakia, and your photo just cheers everything up!
Your title to it is so great, it makes me laugh aloud (in my work)...beautiful colour and sharpnes, and poor cricket! He really looks to be in a very undecisive mood...

Hi Leon,

Beautiful capture and well done on the composition. Excellent vivid colors, details are great. Excellent work.

Mike

:D!
This is the most emotional insect shot i have ever seen!
Love everything about it!
Fantastic moment! geat sharpness and detail!
thanks for the comment on my buggy and have a nice evening, karina:)

Lovely macro, very good detail and great DOF. The dominating green color has enough variation to make the shot very eye pleasing.
Well done!
Vassilis

P.S. Thank you for your kind comments.

Great DOF control. Among the similar greens cricket is ahsrp with its all details. And the red colored line on edge of the leaf adds a nice taste to composition. Well seen and captured. Thanks Leon!

Wow Leon, what a beauty... all that green, with the thin red line in it ;o). And an excellent macro too...
Why did you wait nearly 2 years before posting this ??
TFS

Well I appreciate seeing the green Leon, I do love greens and blues. I hope summer will come too and hope that it will be warm in May when we visit Europe on a tour. Only a short time in Brussels though, and then on to Germany, Czechoslovakia, Austra, Italy, Switzerland and France. Each stay of about two nights only and sometimes only one. Anyway, I am looking forward to taking some good photos as memories of the trip.
I love this composition, the cricket is so delicate against the background and the luminosity of the green is wonderful. The framing adds a lot to the final image I find. Very nicely done.
Cheers Joan
Thanks for visiting my photo.

All I can do is smile by looking at this photo. I had a similar title today but mine was about swimming and flying!

hahaha :)
I like it very much!
Nice colour, and the main caracter has such a facial expression that really fits with the tittle you gave to it!

Hello. Very nice composition, funny shot and beautiful natural colours. Great work. Well done. :O)

Nice details and good sharpnes. I like the red line. I would have put the cricket more to te left a bit.

TFS,
Pedro

Splendid shot Leon, Great composition and colors. Well done.

Hi Leon
Wonderful shot!!
Love this kind of semi-abstract compo. Colors are fantastic with the orange line that composes marvelously with the legs of the animal!
Great great!!

good shoot -- fine green

I did not see this one before..it's a brilliant shot - The fresh rich greens..and it's very nicely framed too. Congratulations

This macro shot is so amazing. I like the DOF, creating perspective of similar texture and objects with similar colors. The red accentuate the green very well. The grasshopper itself is so sharp. TFS.

Mooi foto leon, ik hou van al dat groen en dat streepje rood op het blad. De foto is echt scherp, en heeft een goede DOF. Het is gewoon...PERFECT

Hi Leon...there is a long time i had the chance to comment one of yours pictures.....
