Locust, Locusta migratoria.

Posted by Grahame (Mt Maunganui, New Zealand) on 5 March 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

I've been after a picky of one of these flighty creatures for a couple of years now.
We fortunately don't get them in the plague proportions of some country's.
This one buzzed me then led me on a merry chase down a clay bank,stopping only long enough to let me catch up !
The final image is as much about tactility as it is about a portrait of this beastie.

Hi folks,
Hope you enjoy the Dreams.
All feedback is enjoyed.
Don't be scared if you think the image is a nightmare, I still want to hear your thoughts about it.
I've just redesigned my website so if your interested in seeing the images I've been taking wander on over for a nosey.
