		| | very well done! Love the background | 
 |

		| | Wow, that's a big one. A little closer for a sharper macro might have made this pop a bit more. |

		| | Crickey mate! That's a big hopper. | 
 |

		| | The focus is on the hand instead of the grasshopper | 
 |

		| | Nice capture! I think I would have liked the bottom and left side cropped a little bit more, but you did a great job with the colors and subject capture. |

		| | I think you have a stowaway :) 
 Good colour in the sky.

		| | It seems like the grasshopper's body is not as sharp as the hand.  I wonder if a slightly larger depth of field (or manual focus) would have nailed it?  Appealing photo anyway.  Man, that is one big grasshopper! |

		| | cool shot! i like the angle, its unusual for a grasshopper shot | 
 |

		| | good capture but does not provide must interest | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/15/2009 03:07:13 PM | 
		| | I might have cropped this a bit tighter | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/15/2009 02:40:31 PM | 
		| | Good shot.  Not sure how many chances to get this shot so nice capture. | 
 |

		| | That's pretty cool. Shows how big the grasshopper is. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/15/2009 11:21:58 AM | 
		| | pretty cool capture, he doesn;t seem to mind having his picture taken | 
 |

		| | Cute grasshopper! Nice details. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/14/2009 07:44:07 PM | 
		| | Very cool. Would like less hand in the image though, more sky. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/14/2009 07:21:09 PM | 
		|  | 
		
			|  | 03/14/2009 01:24:02 PM | 
		| | Wow, he really posed quite nicely. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/14/2009 12:20:47 PM | 
		| | interesting perspective giving a nice sense of scale. 6 | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/14/2009 10:16:56 AM | 
		| | excellent focus, very good colors |

		| | Can I keep him, mom? Can I? Huh, huh?! Pleeeeeeeeze? I promise to walk him an' feed him an' change his little box every day! | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/14/2009 12:07:58 AM | 
		| | A pleasant summer day diversion. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/13/2009 02:08:29 PM | 
		| | Is that a locust?  Or just one heck of a grasshopper?  Oddly engaging composition: the sky and fields, and the hand floating above an open road that curves away towards the clouds.  Nice. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/13/2009 01:36:11 PM | 
		| | i would have been way too squeamish to take a shot like this. congrats on an awesome capture. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/13/2009 01:04:21 PM | 
		| | A tighter focus or crop might make this image stand out more. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/13/2009 12:33:03 PM | 
		| | This is blurry and the colors seem rather flat.. Maybe bringing the hand down a little and showing more of the sky would have been better. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/13/2009 11:54:54 AM | 
		| | Interesting capture! Very nicely done. 8 |

			|  | 03/13/2009 10:01:26 AM | 
		| | Great close up shot, I like the hand for a good size comparison | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/13/2009 05:01:58 AM | 
		| | I like the contrast against the sky. |

		| | Curious approach to the bug shot, but gives me a sense of adventure and discovery | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/12/2009 11:05:14 AM | 
		| | a little too central composition, plus there is too much hand which takes the focus away from the bug. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/12/2009 08:45:16 AM | 
		| | Wow it looks pretty big! hahah. Wouldnt want it on my hand. Nice colors and detail and subject. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/12/2009 07:26:44 AM | 
		| | Cool bug. Good perspective. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/12/2009 04:10:16 AM | 
		| | nice  detail  in the grasshopper | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/12/2009 01:32:34 AM | 
		| | Very nice close up, makes me wonder if the bug is real. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/11/2009 09:41:02 PM | 
		| | Reminds me of catching grasshoppers as a kid. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/11/2009 06:53:33 PM | 
		| | Wow. That is a big grasshopper! | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/11/2009 02:34:52 PM | 
		| | Whoever was holding this bugger was brave! I have seen some of them have a tendency to bite! |

			|  | 03/11/2009 06:39:55 AM | 
		| | Very good comp for what it is. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/11/2009 03:41:21 AM |
