I found this tiny (about 1cm long) grasshopper inside the house. It was happy to pose for ages.

I really need to get a proper macro lens, the second one is at the limit of what I can achieve with my telephoto/Raynox configuration.

They look a bit soft to me, which I guess is the due to the limitation of your set-up. I really like the composition on the first one though.

Yep, I'd agree. I might try some extension tubes rather than splashing out on a macro lens.

Nice looking creature :)
