    Not much butts to shot today as it was cloudy and drizzling.
    Managed to capture an unknown bug though.
    The other one is a moth flew into my house last night.
    If you know their name, please share.

    What a weird bug. Can really see where it starts and where it ends. Could it be a juvenile of something? Initial look, thought it only have 4 legs.

    The juvi hopper is funny looking. Too bad details are lost, can hardly figure out where's the head and tail.

    It's not easy to see the eye because it blends into the body. The details doesn't stand out.

    Loke,
    This is a much better version, can see the eye.
    But flash is a bit harsh, especially the lower part of the bug.

    Loke,
    Actually I'm not referring to the size. I'm referring more to the lighting causing the details to be lost. If you look at the part where the leg overlap with the body, you will notice that the leg blends into the body too. It would be good to get the light in a better angle such that the details are shown instead of hidden.
