We call that a grasshopper in Canada.

Indeed Ron. It was an attempt at humour but I guess it hasn't quite worked

Well you caught some nice images! Don’t seem to see as many now as I did as a kid. Of course I’m not out in the fields quite as much either.

Looks like one is going on a “piggyback” ride. Ah yea…

Thanks, maybe I should have inserted Jimny beore the cricket

 

[windmillgolfer]

Jack, thanks. I confess you are not the first to say that to me ;-)

 

[windmillgolfer]

Thanks Pap. have to say the insects seem to be 'at it' quite a bit. I have an interesting dragonfly image on that theme, which I'll post after I get back home - needs better PP than I can do on the iPad to do it justice.

One word - Carpenteresque.

Which I hope you recognise for the compliment it is.

 

[windmillgolfer]

Thanks John. I'm sure it is a compliment but must confess I am not familiar with Reference. Can you point me in the right direction. Thanks

Nice set Stuart. Crisp with plenty of detail. Well done.

Cheers,

Ah. Well in the day, When the FZ50 was king around here, a certain chap called Trevor Carpenter very often showed us all how it was done. He has now moved onto DSLR gear, but the skill is not lost;

Thanks for t hat link John. Tried looking back at his previous FZ50 posts. The text is there but the. Images aren't - just a big red X. Will search again back home on the PC - flying back today :-(

 

[windmillgolfer]

Thanks Jerry. Bright light helps but the 90F doesn't ;-)
