Both old slides. An unusual predatory katydid, active during the night both at the ground and the vegetation. The bottom image shows a "normal (herbivore)" katydid being eaten by this predator.
Top: taken with F3HP + Micro-Nikkor 55mm f/2.8 ai-s + flash, hand held. Ektachrome EBII ISO 100 from December 1998.
Digital dupe by D7200 + 20mm extension tube + Micro-Nikkor 55mm f/2.8 ai-s @f/5.6 + BR2A&BR3 rings + ES1 slide copy device. This combo makes a ~1:1 repro of the original slide.
Bottom: taken with F90x + TC201 + Micro-Nikkor 60/2.8D AF (= 120/5.6 MF Micro) + SB 28 flash hand held. Fujichrome RDPIII ISO 100 from November 2000, Prata-MG, Brazilian savannah.
I know I know this is breaking the law but consider the TC201 was behind the lens and I used it manual focusing (body moving front-back), and I wished to show this montage with two takes of this monster katydid. Any banning ( 1 week, 1 month) from the master will be accepted without contestation.
