Default Random Bug Shots

These couple of grasshoppers were kind enough to pose for me yesterday.

And then, I witnessed a murder.

And then here is a spider from the other night.

Those are some really close up shots. I like the second one of the grasshopper best.

Thanks to both of you! The second one is my favorite too.

I got a 100mm macro lens which I have been playing around with and enjoying immensely, and I have no clue why, but that grasshopper was just fine with that lens being a few inches away from it.

Time to change your signature then! You are no longer a "Kit lens loser." Someday I hope to disencumber myself of the same title.
