Phyllium Siccifolium Nymph
A shot of a leaf insect, it is about 15mm long with a head diameter of about 1.5mm.
Picture taken with it on a fresh budding hawthorn leaf under natural window light at f11 iso 200 1.5secs 210mm.
Flash might be better but hard enough getting an exposure on these little critters without having to deal with softening flash, even breathing near them sets them of disco dancing.
Hope some people find this a little interesting and different.
Thanks for looking.
Here ya go will do some fresh shots of my sticks later if you want some, this shot is of the males head about 1 month ago about 6mm the head, since then the female has moulted and is abut 8 inches long now totally different looking from the male.
