Nice hopper, those eyes are very cool!

Id be tempted to give it just a smidge more contrast.

Edit:
oops, I take that back, looks fine on my home monitor.

Really nice light control on this very cool looking hopper. The yellow flowers do add a lot to this comp.

The hopper looks super - beautiful detail, and an interesting species (unfamiliar to me). I wouldn't push the contrast - the range is fine as is..

According to bug guide .net this appears to be an immature bird grasshopper( Schistocerca nitens)

I retracted that :)
One of my work monitors is apparently off a bit. Looks fine at home.
