These are leaf-footed bug nymphs in various stages of developement. I am not sure if these are moniliform antenna or geniculate.

Leaf

Sometimes I find myself wishing I was a plant expert..... Found these tree leaves with very strange 'devil' horns growing all over them. Thoughts welcome? Not quite as sharp as I'd have liked but given I had to stand on the road to shoot it handholding was my only real option.

Macroshot of Veins on Leaf

Pitville Park, near the Lake, Cheltenham, in the picturesque Cotswolds.

Here is a picture of a ginkgo leaf illuminated by the sun.

When shooting this I didn't realize that I had captured the reflections of the trees around me in the wet leaf. Love surprises like this!

The foregound is blurred 'cos a almost lied down on the ground, and the sand was too close for the cam, I guess it turned out good.

A Leaf insect (Walking leaf) from Thodupuzha, Kerala. Phasmida species. Looks like Phyllium gigantium. Not sure. It is almost 11 cm+.

Picked-up a few of these today and found their blood-red colors stunning.

Master of camouflage, hooded mantis

I think this is the better version. Looks like it was on a light table.

Or do you like the dark version more?

Don't miss the big version of this.

Leafs, no life, dead nature...but still beautiful.

Taken on the Shropshire Community Flickr meet in Bridgnorth. Lots of Autumn leaves were on the ground and they made for for lovely compositions. I took this whilst everyone else was chatting by the cars.
