I gave this a 9 when I voted for it. What a fun shot. The only add I might say is that it's too bad that the antennae was cut off. That would have really sealed the deal :)
very cute hopper - I love the way his littel head is cocked at an angle. The skin at the bottom is distracting though - might have corrected this by cropping tighter. Focus is a little soft too.
Great shot of the face! What an expression. I also like the hair in the foreground, it really anchors the insect and you can imagine it moving about. Nice depth of field and the blue background complements well the green color although it does seem a tad artificial. very well done!
Awesome macro shot although I'm honestly starting to wish this was a "no bugs or flowers' macro challenge. don't worry you pic is one of the best bugs in the bunch 9
9 - Wow. Very good. Like the 'grass'. That front leg in focus and, well, very near perfect. The blue and green looks good. Great angle. I also hazard, only natural light?
Please tell me he is on skin! I don't want to hear you have a hairy sidewalk! Excellent detail for such a close image. DOF excellent, POV great. Composition good. Outside the challenge, it might be good to include a little more of the arm/leg/belly whatever to give a better sense of place so people aren't left wondering... 7 Good luck in the challenge!
