LOL nice one Rick, love the inflight grasshopper. Did I mention the grasshopper had to be called Edward and the dragonfly had to have 3 legs missing on the same side of it's body :-D:-D Nice shots all round Rick.

Stunning shots Rick, #1 is amazing - gotta be a first on here surely.

Oh dear, poor thing with the robber fly stabbing it :cry: Its a great shot all the same.

I will eagerly await your task for Alby and see if he can meet the challenge :lol:

great effort, tough capture. When you get one pin sharp it will be stunning.

The inflight grasshopper is a bit soft.
P.S. Joking! How you can do such stuff with an SLR camera without a lab and a strobe is beyond me.
