Thanks John.
It's on a glass plate indeed and it took me some shots to avoid reflexion and to get the focus right, but it worked out nicely indeed.

amazing shot, looks like that thing being on a glass or something like that! so you catch it at the ...AIR! PERFECT focus and flash is very good here with not so strong shinings on its body...really angly bug BUT really a great photo!!!
best regards!

Thank you very much for you comment and suggestions. I don't agree on the background subject. The image needs the background to achieve maximum effect. Without it it loses context and depth. It also degrades as a total composition. And I try to look for a total composition instead of focusing on a subject.
But you have a great portfoleo with proven quality, so I appreciate your thoughts on the matter very much.

Just discovered your porfolio, Sam. This is a fascinating and startling pic of this insect. Clever idea to rotate your image 90 degrees, to give this, 'mid air' impression. To give further impact, I'd clone out the distracting orange bars and shape. It would also give a uniform, black background. 7.

I really like the idea of this - an underneath view! I also like the composition - a nicely fitting diagonal across the photo - and taking the photo through glass is just a really neat idea.
I think the lighting is a little harsh in that some areas are a little blown, and the contrast high, and I don't know hoe you feel about PS - but I reckon cloning out the orange bits in the background would enhance the overall effect (grasshopper hovering in mid air!). However, these points don't stop me enjoying your photo - thank you!

It was taken at the local Zoo. The hopper stood against the glass and I took a few pictures, the two last ones with flash(after the second he got scared and flew); Those last ones were the best but overexposed... I decided to darken the main body but too keep the edges overexposed and this is the result... Almost forgot: I rotated it 90 degrees to achieve the final effect.

This is a very puzzling picture to me . . . a night shot in front of a busy street? But how did the grasshopper come in to it pictured so precicely focused and with such illuminated highlights. Quite a mystery! :) I like it!

Hahaha you made me laugh now, because if my alien goes green seing me then maybe I have that effect on people that look at me... They become so ill that they get green and then throw up! ;-)

Ik kan het achteraf niet meer reconstrueren want ik heb veel foto's van het beest gemaakt en weet niet meer exact welke het is. het is in ieder geval in artis gemaakt en hij stond verticaal tegen zijn glazen kooi wand. Ik heb naderhand de med-tones iets dokerder gemaakt zodat achtergrond geen afleiding zou zijn. Dat heeft ervoor gezorgd dat voorgrond objecten zoals haartjes e.d. scherper lijken.

Ik kan niet helemaal opmaken hoe je hem hebt gefotografeerd. Het lijkt wel van onder een glas plaat. Ik moet zeggen dat je de kleuren er erg mooi uit hebt gehaald. Hoewel het een beetje raar overkomt. Heb je geflitst op de eerder genoemde glasplaat? Hoewel dat ongebruikelijk is en eerder af te raden dan aan te raden werkt het hier wel. Alle kleine haartjes etc. op zijn lichaam worden naarvoren gehaald.
Ik weet niet zeker hoe je het doet, maar je doet het goed. :)
Groeten, Tim.
Bedankt voor de comments van de laatste tijd.
