[Janice]

Nice one Janice lovely and sharp, just wonder how small it was or large.
I'm afraid nothing to post myself as very dull and windy.

 

[Janice]

Was an inch long. Its a Spotted Bush Cricket to give him his proper title.

Very windy here too, if it wasnt for the fact that I spotted him indoors,, Id have had no chance!

Nice one Janice , but is it a Bush Cricket that you spotted or a Spotted Bush Cricket that you spotted.

You must have steady hands 1/8 sec at f29

Whatever it was, it should have a health warning before opening.....I nearly had a heart attack!!!

great shot, but I still hate creepy crawly things.....
and cats.....
and dogs.....
and horses....
and....

Yes, I dont know HOW he managed to stay on there.... it was shiny white paint!!

 

[Skypilot]

What lens did you use for that shot please.
I see the focal length was 105mm but don't see a specific macro lens in your kit profile.

 

[RobbieW]

I don't like things with more than 4 legs my mummy warned me about then!

But from a photogarphy point of view its very good, well spotted.

Can we have a new warning on threads - NSFSS (Not Suitable For Southern Softies)

 

[Janice]

Ah sorry.... havent updated it for a while!

It's a Sigma 105 macro! It's lovelyl!

 

[Janice]

But from a photogarphy point of view its very good, well spotted.

Was that supposed to be a pun about the "well SPOTTED" as it is a spotted bush cricket....or was that way above your head, like the cricket was above mine!!

 

[Venomator]

It's Venomator!!

... Could be ... ... but I'm too fat to hang upside down like that ... even in J's conservatory ...

I wondered where Rog had gone..........didnt dream he'd be hiding under my conservatory windowsill!!

Wish I had been actually J ... that 'proper' Guinness ...

... is a bit of a killer ...

Been to Dublin ... ... working of course ...



Great pic though Janice ... nice opportunistic shot ...
