## Hi there :) I hope you're having a wonderful day!
#
Today, I'll be sharing with you this picture of a very tiny grasshopper's old skin, after getting a change of outfit for spring as my entry for the [9th week of the Photo 52, 2020 challenge](https://steemit.com/photography/@photo52/photo-52-2020-challenge-week-number-9) created by @wwwiebe.
#
> This week's theme is "MACRO"! And I'm a sucker for those.
#
*I recommend opening in full size to see details the best.*
> *I mean, just LOOK at those minuscule legs!*
__________________________
I took this picture one day I was feeling quite unwell, I had the flu and my grandma told me to bring her some leaves from the backyard to make me some tea; oregano, rosemary, lemon grass and pennyroyal. In my search for this last leaf, I saw this extremely small clue that a little grasshopper had been there.
### I had to take a picture. So I grabbed my phone and geared it up with a cool set of lenses I got from Amazon a while ago to take macro photos that I can carry everywhere (because I *indeed* am a sucker for macros).
#
I took this other picture without the lens to give some perspective on how really small it was.
### To me, anything so small and adorable is worth a space in my blog. It is just so cute. I hope you enjoyed seeing the gift this tiny friend left for us to remember grasshoppers also change of skin! :)
