It looks like a nymph of Tettigonia viridissima, but who can tell for sure?

Nice shots there Nikola! I see these little buggers all the time around my place.

Lovely composition in image #1. Don't know why, but I'm often taken by these "edge of the world" shots. The colored background is a really nice touch in this one.

Thanks guys.

Rik, the colored background is actually a piece of broken pantile.

I also like those holes in the leaf which brings dimension (spatiality?) to the composition.

Great photos Nikola. I agree with Rik on the first one..."bug overlooking vast new world"
