I had just finished taking a few shots of tomorrows upload (it's a secret) when I found this Grasshopper on my camera bag. I had no choice (honest) but to grab a few shots of the Grasshopper. Well it looked happy where it was, and it seemed a shame to disturb it just to put my camera away. The angle of shot was decided by the Grasshopper as every time I moved round it would move with me. Must have been its best side.
Hope you like it. Thanks for looking, as always comments welcome.

Vain little so-and-so! Glad you didn't disturb him, it's paid off.

Definitely a poseur, I think, and why not? Perhaps he thought your bag was the latest accessory!
Excellent, crisp image.

If that's his best side I would hate to see his other side!! - Cracking detail and lighting, he is obviously a professional model!
