Comments appreciated...one hopper and one beetle

tchuanye · 5th March 2005

Took these today at Kent Ridge Park.

This was a very small hopper. Appreciate any critique.
1/500Sec, F8.0, ISO: 100

This is a black beetle (any one know the ID?) . It was on a leaf, by the grey walking track. Took it face on, and the grey background was the road. Appreciate any comments....Thanks!

1/80Sec, F6.5, ISO :50

All taken with Panasonic FZ10, Nikon 6T (+2.9)+Sigma Close up lens (+1.6), with bounce flash

Cheers!
