Green tropical bugs mating

This post showcases two unidentified green bugs mating. Yet another privacy invasion by me. :)

The bugs in this scandal could be a family of grasshopper + stick insect + mosquito. I think it one of those fruit fly.

  2. Tabib,

    I use simple tool.

    Actually a Canon PowerShot with built-in ZERO marco.

    No special filter or lenses were used. Just need to be patience with the object and you might get a good composition.
