Grasshopper

What can you do with a 500mm lens? I found this guy standing on the foot path around Purgatory Creek in Eden Prairie and just had to take his picture. I hope he's as happy with it as I am.

Jiminy Crickets! OK, I know this is a grass hopper, it’s all I have.

I remember Bob Ross and his happy trees. I remember how relaxed I felt after watching him paint. I wish I had his talent. Congrats on the new website design. Say, maybe you should work on some photoblogging templates…

WOW! What a great shot! Thank goodness it’s a photo… as he looks like he might just be the leader in the next “Attack of the Giant Grasshoppers!”
I’ll send this to my son who is an amateur photographer so that he has a benchmark to look up to!
