Notes

• Sense I'm not very creative for the moment I continue to go through my pictures from this summer. When I first saw this grasshopper I thought it was alive. Then I realised that is just a shell (or a ghost).

• double creeped me out...lol...I read to see if you'd replaced your equipment. I had no idea they shed their skin like a snake. I'm not looking, but I know it's a good shot:-)

• Cool. I saw an Locust "ghost" the other day but didn't have my side arm with me. I like yours it's not as creepy looking as those locust husk are. Great shot!

• It's really a ghost, surprising the way it's kept this position. Wow it's really a paranormal experience :). Great macro.
