I got it .. at last
A Nemoptera bipennis.
This was an hard shot.. it was very windy and the animal was shy and very little collaborative. I spent more time chasing the beast than shooting, but I never saw one before and I was determined to don't let him go easy...
I have a better picture (unedited) with the long tails more separated..
Single shot.

I'm not very fond of grasshoppers.. I usually ignore tham,. I just photograph grasshoppers when I can't find else...
single shot
002
Another species I never saw before.. when I first looked I thought it was a Trichodes
single shot.
003
A pair of Collete bees... they are very abbondant here now.. it's even boring... I need to go one day very early and try to find them "sleeping" susended by the mandibles...
single shot but with a bit of "crop"
004
It's a single shot , but I needed 49 shots to hit the nail and have it perfectly parallel to the sensor and get focus both in the head and bottom
005
Setup similar to this one, but the camera was the
Nikon D7000 and the objective was the Tokina 100mm
