You are right Argy! I had photographed him on the gate too, to have a better view of just him, so I've added it for you. :))

Good find. I hate to say it but, unfortunately, stick insects are probably better photographed against a plain backdrop. And how do you focus the whole thing!? Just have to do them in parts maybe? So hard.
