This is one of the hopper family of true bugs (Hemiptera). They are very small and given their preferred natural settings, can be seen against dramatic backgrounds. Given the bug’s small size the need for magnification leads to a very narrow depth of field and little artistic leeway. This is one of those animals that is indifferent to your presence and will sit and stare, turn its back or wander quickly away. I almost always try to get the insects face on and that make it harder to precisely identify the creature.
