I have got to say that you did better on these, than you did on the "half eaten flower" there Nikola. Great shots!

Really nice, and still hot and sunny there!

Nice eyes on that hopper! You might consider trying an image-editing program to clone out the eye reflection.

If the brand name had been visible, you might have sold this shot to Nike for an endorsement! (just kidding)

I like this shot Nikola - particularly the close-up. He/she looks like it's looking straight at the camera (with it's left eye anyway

) and very aware that its having its photo taken:

"...Hmmm nice camera - 1/250th at f5.6 should set my face off a treat"

Very sharp focus and nice DOF. I like the pads on the feet and the spiky legs

I see feet in the second one

Well Doug, last summer a several ladies told me that I have sexy legs but I'm not sure what they really ment.

By the way, this is the same cool schnozzlehopper guy.
