A bug in brilliant sunlight. The clarity of the texture is great and the magnification is impressive.

A cricket in the thicket, or grasshopper leaf chopper? He'll never tell with that teasing grin, but good for a photo and sharp as a pin. With green and orange and yellow apparel, he'll keep Jairos laughing, overflowing a barrel.

I am almost sure that little monster is smiling. LOL And he is very green. I think what I like the best about this photo is the lovely light from the sun and the way it is falling on the cricket. He is indeed kissed by the sun.

Your focus is spot on and sharp showing clear and well defined details in the Cricket, and the exposure is perfect. I also like a lot the vibrant greens in this photo, which gives the photo great impact.

I think the tight cropping works well, and the Cricket is well placed within the frame. This indeed a well taken shot, and with an excellent DOFF.

You continue to amaze me with your macro pictures. If a bug can smile, he is certainly posing and smiling for this picture. I am so going to be practicing taking macro shots. Thank you for your inspiration.

Looks like a cricket of some sort and it is smiling for Jairos! ha Neat macro shot of this green guy with some nice light and shadow. You really got us in nice and close to see all the tiny details of this one Fred. A Jairos shot for sure. Pin sharp focus and a nice exposure really shows it off well. Thanks for sharing it.
