Or more properly grasshopper two. But since it is the same grasshopper that appeared here a couple of times previously it is technically grasshopper three. But only one of the previous photos was entitled grasshopper. But in the context of the title used it implies that the grasshopper is a bonus to the image and that I was primarily aiming to capture the deep shadows of the leafy undergrowth. As if the grasshopper appeared at the last moment, smiled and waved an antennae before moving on.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

I can't seem to get any cooperation out of our insects/bugs. Must be an Ontario thing, Wendell. Love the tones and background for your subject. I assume you pay union wages.

Excellent capture of the critter - not a fan of any hopping or flying bug and this can do both - but the light is very special in this.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
