Really like the second shot. The detail and crop really works for this shot.

Lovely series again.

At first glance, the bush cricket looks like he's saying 'oh my gosh, I'm on film...'

Superb set of shots - the darter actually looks a bit grumpy lol.

Wonderful cricket shots too, love that extra detail you are getting.
