Poor little hopper. I always wonder if losing a feeler puts him off his hop as I have seen many like this over the years.Perhaps he will be a bit lop-sided but get there anyhow.

Poor thing! This is a beautiful shot of the insect. You have timed it well. The light, colour and the composition have worked well. Good luck in the contest!

Very sharp. Love the clarity of the fine lines and the eye.
Background is just right. Lighting and technical skills, high five. Well captured.
