My son has a knack for finding little creatures. Not sure of the technical name of this one, we always just call them leaf hoppers.
Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign Mr Linky. MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

Cool shots, that’s what I’ve always heard them called too.

He certainly isn’t the most handsome little bug is it; but you certainly got his eye!
Super macros!

I always thought they were interesting creatures. So oddly shaped like a space ship or something. We call them leaf hoppers too. great pics.

Fabulous shots
AL said,
Wow! I have seen that but don’t know what it’s name, they’re really weird looking. I’ll try to find it and see if it’s the same.
Bonnie Bonsai said,
Looks like one of those moths. Clever capture!
Margaret Gosden said,
A wonderful macro contrast, the bug itself so clearly defined
against a painterly looking background -

It looks like he’s got some body armor on. Great captures Lisa – such soft dreamy backgrounds too.

You made yours look very poetic, but I wish all my leafhoppers would hop away.
Far away.

These little creatures are so easily overlooked but are so interesting when viewed close up. Well spotted, your son

We have those too. We call them the same thing!
Mojo,NC,USA said,
Is that what those guys are called? I never knew. We have them all over the place down here. Don’t think I’ve ever been so close to one as this though.
