Speckled Bush Cricket
by Jodie Randall
Peeping over the edge of a leaf in my garden, this speckled bush cricket was so incredibly well camouflaged that I had trouble locating him through my camera's viewfinder.
Equipment: Nikon D70 + Sigma 105mm macro lens

I have been taking wildlife photographs for around three years, now eighteen I hope to become a freelance nature photographer.

You must be ‘One Great Cricket Hunter’ to find this little guy. Nicely captured Jodie.
Tom
Nice focus.

That is very clear capture and the cricket almost posing on the edge. I really like the faded background and the crystal clear subject.

Nice macro shot, although all that green is a little bit too much for me.
Buffy
wow!!
Pauline Jones
For a macro you have very good depth of field, which is needed on this shot. The most important thing is to get the subject’s eyes in focus; well done.

Excellent “shot” of the tender cricket.
Jodi, it’s my personal opinion … your “journey” of becoming a “nature photographer” is quite evident.
