Re: Grasshopper's!
Good camera angles.
It is a wingless species, well very short wings anyway, so possibly a Speckled Bush Cricket but I would need to see the rear end to be certain.
With those very long antennae it is certainly a cricket not a grasshopper.Last edited by Geoff F; 29th June 2015 at 08:06 PM.

Re: Grasshopper's!
I was about to ask the same as Jim here...I was guessing either salt or snow....
I love #1 in that you put that very long antennae positioned right at the corner...

Re: Grasshopper's!
Cheers Geoff, thanks again for a proper I.D, it's probably me being Scottish that I'm not familiar with cricket (s)

I prefer the first photograph mainly because I find the range of greens and background work better for me.

Re: Grasshopper's!
Because of the background #1 is my pick but both images nice and sharp where it counts an great POV.
Great work David
