Thanks all, I could spend all day photographing a different one every time as there are so many here.
Thanks Neil, yes its a bull cricket lol.
Brian, I am as you know not very good with PP as I Have said before so I have done what I thought was good but I knew they were both a bit under. I need a 64 bit machine :banghead:
