Now this is a grasshopper for sure. I'm truly amazed at the quality of shots from the 70-200 f/2.8L IS II with Kenko tubes. My 100 macro lens is getting lonely... maybe I'll take her out for spin tomorrow...  Canon 5D2 | 60D | A620 | SD850 IS | SD4000 IS

Sounds right to me. Second one is obviously in its locust phase. First one looks like a nymph that is yet to transform.
