GREAT GREEN GRASSHOPPER

in #photography7 years ago

Did I mention that green is my favorite color?


I have had an unbelievably difficult and stressful day. I had to do a lot of running around and then we almost moved the mobile home to our property... almost. The tongue snapped off of the trailer and had to be re-welded, and then the turn was too tight. I'll probably have to take down some fencing in the morning to finish getting it in.

Anyway, in the mist of all that, this little guy hopped out in front of me. I was waiting for the next move on the attempted mobile home relocation, so I grabbed the camera and had a peaceful little moment photographing this guy. Enjoy the pics; I enjoyed taking them!

THE GREEN GRASSHOPPER

That what we call macro photography 😄

Its more fun to take this type of photography - you make things bigger with the touch of an art. 👍

Same color with the grass.
Eat them leaves.
That is your duty.

These pictures look so freaking beautiful!
You surely have attained mastery in composing a scene.
I too have had a hard time capturing these guys they can excellently camouflage themselves

Nice grasshopper! I was looking for his shoes and umbrella but he didn't have them so I guess Jimny Cricket didn't lend them out to this grasshopper for his formal portrait with @papa-pepper!

I actually saw that formal glimmer in the grasshopper's eye too! What a snazzy fella 🎶

ya se hicieron amigos, eso quiere decir que no todo fue malo... a pesar de las dificultades conseguiste un pequeño amigo. espero que logres resolver.

Fue un día difícil, pero lo resolví bien. ¡Gracias mi amigo!

Sorry you had such a rough day. Hopefully tomorrow will be a much smoother day. At least this guy brought some color and Steemit followers your way.

Oh mama said there would be days like this. Good luck on getting that trailer and tomorrow, and of course taking down the fence is just what you need because you don't have anything else to do, right?

This little guy might have hopped out in front of you, but I think he is chowing down on your leaves right about now. Jiminy may be cute but I think he might be a little destructive.

Good luck!

Tip!

Say hello to your little friend. Cute fellow, would give Jiminy Cricket a run for for his money.

Green, color of hope, those photos were beautiful, beautiful grasshoppers, very photogenic hahaha.

Lovely little guy. We had a stressful day too...the farmer about took his finger off with barbed wire, and some cows had pinkeye and we had to Dr them...they weren't happy...but we are so very blessed and I know you feel the same way about your life and family. :)

Yup, hard times, but we persevere! Be blessed!

Woooww, perfect, I like that animal

I like your new, little friend and he seems to like you too.
So beautiful.

Nice ones!!! 🐛 What great moments of peace amongst the turmoil today! What kind of camera did you use to take these pictures?

I love the green color and the photos....If you make the backgraund also green..the macro will have more efect.
Hope you take the time and see some of my macro work. I m shure you, will like my work.
Keep up the good work

Dang dude, your photos look great! Everything is so much more interesting when we look closer.

You're right!

Geesh youre good at finding critters!

Grrrreat clicks man 🤘

I'm afraid of grasshopper. I hear them poisonous but do not you fear?

Sorry to hear about your troubles moving the trailer. Great photos though... he blends in nicely with the greenery!

Good shots! I like the color green too! I wish to have a good camera the same like yours... The beauty of the grasshopper came alive! Amazing!

I remember "Mask Rider Black!" LOL...

I like the third one down the best. He is looking right at me.

The beautiful grasshopper, I love the green.

We used to have a lot of those here when I was younger. Now that I think about it, I haven't seen one in years. Kinda scary, if you think about it.

The one you found seemed rather fond of being in front of the camera though, wouldn't you say?

Awwwnnn what a cute grass hopper.

what stunning macros of this grasshopper. :-) Just saw one of these fellows in the garden of my mother, too. :-)

this guy looks innocent and handsome

and I like the way he is staring ;)

Great shots my man. Amazing how that beautiful creature can blend in so uniquely with the Green plants around it. God is good :)

Green grasshoppers are always lovely!

What a chill hopper. He knows... :)

Good shots! Sounds like a crap comment, but I don't say it lightly 8-). Do you know what species it is?

Anyway, as you like green, here's a big green grasshopper for you, jealously guarding its flowers:

I don't know if you have this species in the USA, it is called great green bush-cricket, fairly big at about 42mm (1.7").

Good catch @papa-pepper. Well, green is really good for the eyes. I remember my previous classroom which I painted apple green. So relaxing!
