Description
Why do they always want to show their backside? :) Maybe they think it is more beautiful than their faces? :) FULL SIZE IS BETTER!
Have a wonderful week.
We have warm weather, not as hot as in Holland, I am glad to say, though I hope Holland will get cooler weather soon. Yesterday it topped on 31C, so I am glad we live close to the sea to both sides, so we usually dont get the hottest temperatures. But today I feel it warmer than yesterday. And we had tropic heat last night. More than 20C. Did I sleep well, NO.
BUT I am back trying to keep up on you. Hope the very busy time is over. :)
Thanks for visiting. :)

Wonderful creature my friend!!!Bravissimo!:DDD.Hugsx Whylma
Brava Helle. This is a great shot. Lovely blue background and fantastic details on subject. Superb DOF.
Fantastic details, a superb shot. Here in southern Germany, it is also very hot. Yesterday it was almost 40°C in the shadow and at night were still 27°C. Since one can not sleep well, because we have no air condition.
She looks wonderful against that brilliant blue! She is proud of her ovipositor..that is why she shows you her rear!
Great capture Helle, and I enjoyed your fun thoughts
Super shot and the blue shows off those very powerful legs.
It is very cool. Thanks. 5+!
Excellent POV on the macro! :)
WOW! Those are impressive legs and I think that's why you see so many of them from the backside! They're showing off their legs and ovipositors and then their legs again! Also, I think that this particular specimen looks so good from the rear! The face would be marvelous, but with this little person, it's all about those long, long legs! This is excellent. I've never seen one like this. It looks almost like a cross between a grasshopper and a bush cricket.
That's their defensive end! Maybe you were a bit to close with your macro? ;)
Interesting image, Helle! Great details and capture! :)
Stunning capture Helle. Seams this type of Grasshopper is just as stubborn as zebras who also love to show off their back sides. God Bless.
Maybe it's her best side! :) It was hot here last week ... over 90F a couple of days. High 70s today, but still a bit on the warm side for me!
A lovely little critter, Dear Helle! Excellent clarity and colours of this image... very detailed and an excellent texture as well! I think that blue rope (?) in the background is most perfect to compliment the subject! Well done, my Friend!
Nice shot Helle. Looks like he's thinking about that rope!
Amazing macro.
What a wonderful shot; I've never seen one with that big spike!
Such an amazing capture with that blue behind this stunning grasshopper, Helle! A splendid shot, you are a wonderful observer.
