Those are awesome.
Love the pattern on the nymph.
The last one of the beetle is great. As always, love the eye detail.
How did you get the blue background? Shot upward and enhanced the sky blue color?
Thanks.

A fabulous series, Brian. The bush cricket is absolutely wonderful and the bumble bee is lovely. and the tiny plant bug nymph is superb.
